Default OTA Updates?

@rugedraw Are you the one to check the VIN's? I purchased a 2023 F150 Platinum about three weeks ago. From what I can tell, I think it is behind on updates.

VIN: 1FTFW1ED0PFB18552

Sync 4 software version: 23291_PRODUCT Revision: 1049

Most recent update in the truck:
Priority Update 23-PU1009-SS-NS

Truck says no new updates available...

Sync 23291 is the latest Sync available for 2021-2023 trucks. The truck is not behind at all. There are a few modules with pending updates, but nothing to worry about.

Thank you, he was able to fix it yesterday, it took 5 minutes!

Default Question about software updates

Is there a web site that lists all software updates for the 2021 F150? I get a notification in the app and when looking at the details all it has is a very generic explanation of the update. Computer companies like Microsoft have complete listings, with detailed explanations, of all the updates and patches being pushed. They also provide a way for a user to roll back an update if issues suddenly arise. Does Ford have anything like that? Sometimes after an update things work differently or not at all and I'm not sure if I have a problem or if it is a software induced issue. For example, I just received an update and suddenly when I try to make a call through the truck all I get is static, I've found that if I click the button to make the call go through the phone speaker vs truck speaker and then switch it back to the truck the static clears. I'm trying to figure out if something happened to the phone (which works fine with other Bluetooth connections) or if the software update did something and if so how to get it fixed. Thanks

The attached Excel is completely up to date and I know this because I am the one that maintains it over n gen14f150 forum. However, the release notes are the same one you see on your screen and may not provide the details you are looking for. Which update was it you got? I may know what it is or does.

After a long period of inactivity, I noticed a messaged on the Ford Pass that my '21 truck received 4.3.6. I never noticed the update symbol on the truck screen while driving around today. I went out to the truck and going to the SW update under the Update Details screen I see the following...

Vin is 1FTFW1E84MFA54210. Rugedraw, am I indeed out of Update Purgatory?

Oh for sure you're out. That is the last of the 4.x.x updates. The 6.x.x ones are up next.

Thanks Rugedraw.
I received 4.3.5 back in August of last year. It has been a long dry spell...

The original from the Ford app is "Ford Power-Up 6.4.0, I've since received Ford Power-Up 6.5.0 and all it says "Minor adjustments to help you enjoy the journey ahead"
