Adding 2018 GT350 to Existing Ford Pass App

[TxGT350-52]

I recently purchased a used 2018 GT350 and I am finally getting around to adding it to my FordPass App. The car has the 900A Equipment Group package and the Convenience Package, so I am pretty sure it has the necessary hardware. After adding the GT350 VIN# to my existing FordPass account I can see an accurate picture of the car, but I am not able to see any information on the car like tire pressure, gas tank, etc.

The Ford dealer added my 2018 Raptor for me last year, so I did not do it myself. There is probably some setting in the car that is not correct or turned off. I am not sure if the previous owner ever added it to his own FordPass account, so it is possible that is the issue, as well.

Does anyone have the steps for adding one of our cars to the FordPass App?

Did you link it to the car via Bluetooth yet (your phone)?

I think you may need to do that first then I think there is a menu option under settings on the car radio.

Yes, I have been using Bluetooth for calls and to play music from my phone, so that part it working. Do you know where I need to look for the option to add the car to FordPass? Is it called SYNC AppLink? I am not at home with my car now, but I think I recall seeing something like that when I was looking in the Menu, but it was not obvious that was the setting I needed.

That sounds right.

Also the 2018 GT350 does not have the same Ford Pass capabilities as my 2019. For example I couldn't lock and unlock the doors like I can on my 2019 GT350R. Not sure if the 2018 Raptor allows that.

Yes, the Raptor allows me to lock and unlock, remote start, scheduled starts, fuel level, oil life and odometer. I realize the manual GT350 will not allow remote starts, but I would like to see the other information available.

Im pretty sure the app should let you see all that. Make usre you are allowing the app to see this information from the car. Might be in the settings part of the app. See thread below:

You may need to delete and then re-add to get it to work.

Would be nice if it did.

Though I did start up a manual GT with remote start over a decade ago. Left it in first. Doh.
