I'm not convinced Ford is sending out wireless updates. My dealer says any updates should be available for automatic updates to my vehicle yet to my knowledge, I have not received any updates. I picked up my 25' in late July.

Here is the paperwork from my service:

They found 2 codes P0929:00, and P0929:77

They found there was 5 updates that needed to be preformed on the following modules: GSM (Gear Shift Module), ACM (Audio Control Module), DSP (Amplifier?), CMR (Camera Module?), and GWM (Gateway - Network/Communications Module)

They also noted these codes appeared since Nov 29th 2024. I didn't even purchase the car until January...

Thanks for sharing those codes. I had the code "P0929" day after purchase November 2024. Not tracking the later code. First oil change this Monday and will have them test. Haven't had the orange wrench sign show up on the dash since but will have them check anyway. I'll share to determine if my 2025 requires same update.

That's no joke. Quality has went in the tank. Maybe they need to hire people that actually know what they are doing, and care. Ford's warranty costs have soared the last few years.

It's hilarious but unfortunately, very true. I'm old enough to remember "Quality is Job 1" commercials. That's not a thing anymore. Got mine back Friday after two weeks at the dealer. They replaced 4WD module, transfer case actuator, and pulled down the wire harnesses; no other issues found. So far so good in fresh snow, but time will tell.
