Ford Pass App

[Mustang5ohMan]

So I just downloaded it. Not sure it’s needed for me. Unlock and Lock and remote start...?

Either way I have 2 questions, 1) Mine doesn’t seem to display any type of oil life or oil percentage monitoring, how can I enable this. 2) If I wanted to disconnect this from the car all together and not use it how can I un do the app from the vehicle.

So, once you click on the Detail button, for your car (I have multiple cars listed), and scroll down, do you not see the oil details there?

I’m asking the same question as the OP.
After hitting vehicle details and scrolling down, I get nothing in regards to oil. I get nickname, license plate, warranty, extended service plans, and vin....that’s it.
I’ll assume I didn’t set correctly. Dealership couldn’t do it due to bad internet connection. Actually my iPhone wouldn’t connect to it due to suspected corruption.
If someone can explain the advantages/disadvantages To Ford Pass that would be great.

Honestly, not much. In this day and age everyone has to have connectivity. Everyone has to have an “app”. I look at mine on occasion. Even started my car a couple of times. If I deleted it, I’d never miss it.

That said having something not work as advertised is frustrating. Go find another dealer with a good internet connection and get it fixed.

You see a refresh button under the photo of your car ? Or quit the app relaunch, I've experienced the following.

Launch the app, select vehicle details, app quits, as if it has crashed, if has not. Relaunch, that function works fine. Have seen this a few times. Most often first time accessing or using it after a week or so.

Theory, stored vehicle details become stale/old like web page history, need to clear. Being just an app, that may be an auto dump/clear operation. And most likely for the cell phone, end of the chain.

There was an update to the app several months ago. I have used it several times to unlock the car from work for home deliveries.

The rewards program might make it worth it.

I reached out to them and the next day they had the oil life displaying for me.

After it interfered with the Android Auto settings for receiving text messages a couple times I deleted the app.
Like any app, its job is to collect data for marketing purposes. Life's too short, away it goes.
