In that case, you're fine. The updates you're missing are of no relevance at this time. You have many modules pending updates, but you already have the ones that matter.

@rugedraw My BlueCruise actually shows, "Hands-free driving mode available through 10-9-2073" on my About SYNC screen.

@rugedraw my truck has been displaying an update reminder for the last few days. I put it on a battery tender last night hoping it would take but the same reminder popped up this morning so I'm guessing it didn't. Would you mind checking? TIA

VIN 1FTFW1E87MFA52242

Took my truck service today. They didn’t bother checking the updates because their “internet was down”.

Funny, I hadn't had an update since Oct 2022, and decided to reset the BMS system one day. That night I got pushed out an update to 3.5.3.

Weird, so a couple days ago, I decided to reset my BMS again. That night, I got 3.5.4 update?

Error code reads:

"errorCode":"InhibitRequiredHvNotQualifiedLvLow(20 4)""projectedLvSoc":"Insufficient12VBattery(0)""to talLvBatteryCapacity":"33""currentLvBatteryDataQua lity":"OK""currentLvBatteryVoltage":"12""currentLv BatterySoc":"66""currentLvBatteryTemperature":"26" "dynamicPostUpdateSocThreshold":"41""estimatedTime ToActivate":"4200""estimatedTimeIncludingRollback" :"8400""currentDrainRate":"9""capacityNeededForOta ":"21""adjustedAvailableLvBatteryCapacity":"19""pr ojectedPostOtaLvCapacity":"-1"

Your SOC is still very low.

There is no way to answer your question. There is no systematic way in which Ford sends these updates out. In your case, you have a 2023 which was built with the older problematic software already. The Sync version you are are was the latest until about 2 weeks ago that a newer was released. I am sure you will get it sooner than later. Either way, you don't get any new features from it other than updating the online owner's manual for your truck, so no need for FOMO. Your truck is fine.

Congrats! You now have full-screen phone capability. 3.5.3 is a PITA to go through, but once it does, 3.5.4 comes through very shortly thereafter.
