Fordpass Activation Issues *resolved* and Locking Lugnuts *unresolved*

[KRae]

*edited to say that the Fordpass issue is resolved. So glad it was a ford issue and not just my truck. They have been having fordpass issues all week*

I am loving my Maverick so far. I have had it for 5 days and have put almost 200 miles on it.

I dont want to complain, just putting this out here so we can keep track of any issues we may be having as this is a first year vehicle

I haven't been able to activate the vehicle through Ford Pass yet. Everytime I try the app tells me that it cant connect. I called the Fordpass guides on Friday and they are looking into it. I have done everything I can think of to try and fix it (update sync, restart sync, restart fordpass on the truck, remove vehicle and readd it, redownload app on phone, etc). There may be something wrong with the modem, I guess we will see what they say later this week.

Another interesting thing... the dealer said that they could not put the wheel locks on the XL because of the covers on the lugnuts. Seems legit, I guess, but if anyone else disagrees let me know because I would really like having wheel locks. I learned that I didnt have wheel locks after I returned to the dealer to ask for the lugnut key. They looked everywhere and couldnt find it, and THEN they figured out that they had never put them on. Good thing I checked, it isnt super expensive but I paid for them! They refunded that part to me.

Here is a picture of my XL. Of course I got it hours before our first snow of the season

I have the same feeling that that's going to happen to me too! The snow I mean . Mine is due next Monday and our newest storm (coming your way ) has started here. At least we will get to find out how they handle in the snow. Nice color by the way! And congrats!

Mine handled great in the snow! It wasnt a lot of snow, but there were crashes on the road so the conditions werent ideal. As sad as I was that it got dirty right away, I do like how dark the color looked with snow on it. It looks blueish gray contrasting against the snow, but in the sun it looks light gray with hints of green. Everyone is saying how much they love the color in person.

So far where I'm at we've gotten a ton of rain, but it's supposed to turn to snow tonight! And the mountains are supposed to get up to 5 or 6 feet from this storm! Nice you have 4 wheel drive .
I don't but we don't usually don't get a ton of snow at 5000 ft. and my house is just a bit above that. My main concern is that the vehicle hauling my new truck has to come over those mountains. .
Anyway enjoy that wonderful looking new truck!
