Am I at risk of having updates skipped over like I've seen discussed above? Thanks!
It is possible, yes. The dealer performed an IPMA update, but I do not see they updated the IPC, so it is possible that your truck may skip updates now that it will be able to get updates. At this point, your truck has not yet synced up with Ford's servers after they got your out of OTA limbo, and that can take a while.
I do have a bit of good news. One member from another forum who's truck skipped over the updates that activate bluecruise, cameras in motion and advance trailer assist took his truck to the dealer to have the 21G01 campaign that just reopened to program BC on trucks done to his, and the dealer was able to successfully get him the updates his truck skipped over. This does not mean that this is the case for every truck that skips over updates, but hope is not completely lost if this happens.
The only bad thing is, this campaign ONLY applies to trucks that are supposed to have bluecruise and don't. Otherwise, Ford won't pay dealers for their time.

I just had someone with FDRS pull a list of available module updates on your truck. IPMA and APIM module updates are still pending. However, I don't see an IPC update there, which may be concerning. I am going to have someone with more knowledge than me take a look at your truck and I'll get back to you.

You are awesome, rugedraw. I really appreciate it.

Your truck is fine. Once the IPMA update that is on that list gets done, the IPC update should show up. The dealer did good by you. You can try to get them to do the rest, wait for OTA's, or get a Mongoose and finish it up yourself.

I received a letter in the mail today about 21G01 that states its open through December 31. Last update I received was 4.2.4 in May so I don't think there is anything I need to do personally.

If your truck already has BC, then yes, you can ignore the reopening of the 21G01 campaign.
@rugedraw I will be reaching out in the future, too. My truck skipped over the updates for the Cameras In Motion and Pro Trailer Back Up Assist With Sticker. Waiting a bit to buy the Mongoose cable.
I have a Mongoose and applied every outstanding update a few months back. Got everything (cameras in motion, full screen AA, etc.), but have yet to check for the sticker support for the Backup Assist. Guess I should do that. Lol.
I would love a walkthrough. I was one of the trucks that have never got a single update but I went on vacation after a modem replacement about a month ago and suddenly one came through. I am part of the recall for Bluecruise so I am considering trying that and seeing if it fixes some of the missed updates as others have. I have a screen grab of my sync system, can anyone tell how far back this truck still is? VIN 1FTFW1ED5MFA85043

Very behind. That software is from April of 2021. OTA history for our truck is being recorded here:
