Do our cars have a live 4G data connection similar to GM Onstar?

Just picked up the 19 GT and am wondering if we have a 4G connection I don’t seem to see it anywhere in the navigation menu ...

On my '18 GT there is a screen icon labeled WiFi that you press and it will have all of the details in there including the password to connect your devices

Thanks. Found it. So, is there free data provided for a certain period of time and then you have to pay, like Serius?

Yes there is, sorry don't remember for how long. Since it was AT&T, I just added the number to my AT&T Unlimited account (I think it is $10 a month?)

So, does this mean you are volunteering all of your data to Ford, such as number of miles on your car, your location, driving habits, etc? Sounds like the Onstar set up i had on a camaro. I disabled the system.

Most likely. The system does collect info from the car computer(s) just not sure as to what extent.
