Any OTA updates yet?

Ford may have gods, but they don't have God ... LOL.

Then again, if God drove a car, it would be a Mustang!

There is a reference to an ass but not sure that’s where you were heading or not.

OTA history is below. You've gotten 6.1.0 and 6.2.0. Everything looks good; just need to wait for the next one to be sent to you.

@rugedraw How are you able to do all of this? Do you work for Ford?

Not anymore. I work for Jaguar/Land Rover now. I still have my logins and connections, though.

It failed again. This time it got a little further along the OTA process than the first time, but your car never downloaded the files needed for the update after the server interrogator polled your car. I don't have a good explanation as to why it didn't download the files, as your connectivity seems to be working fine and your car is reporting itself tot he cloud regularly. Do you have good cell phone coverage where you live?

Also, you car is reporting low battery voltage soft codes to the server. In this case, the low battery did not cause the OTA to fail, but that can be an issue with future OTA's.

As in park in a metal garage? Any signal/test applications one may be able to use to test? Maybe stepping into a signal void/dead zone?

I'm not sure if there is a way to measure the modem's signal strength. Unfortunately, PTS rarely gives you a straight up answer when an OTA fails. In this last case for him, the OTA trigger was created on the server on 4/19 and that same day, "consent" was given for the update to install when he started and drove the car. For these types of OTA's, the vehicle has 14 days to download the files from the server before the OTA expires, and it didn't download a single thing. However, his vehicle pinged the server back to activate the OTA trigger, so his car is talking to the mothership.

I don't think that I have any issues with this

at least Ford Pass starting my car engine remotely just fine. If there was a way to check if the network is actually good.

Yes, I can tell if your connectivity is working and it is working. I just don't have a good reason to explain why it didn't even attempt to download any of the files needed for the update in the two weeks the OTA trigger was active. The problem could very well have been on Ford's side. I don't think there's anything wrong with your car.
