Stuff you want Ford to fix in the next software update

[Gregs24]

I feel like this is how it was intended to be but it's not showing, they need to fix it in a software update but I don't know if that's possible or if they care enough to.

Edit: Quiet mode remote startup needs to be fixed ASAP so it actually starts in quiet mode, it's pretty much useless for me because quiet mode only works if you start it from inside the car which I almost never do.

Odd indeed as it is so clearly based on the S550 digital dash where the gear shows all the time

1) have 2 favorite/preference buttons: one for Drive favorites which will allow you to go to any combination of steering, brake, shock, exhaust, etc which you prefer and another with Display preferences for the center console you may prefer such as a phone , audio, gps, aux gauge or wallpaper etc view. one touch of a button instead of several screens to set up or restore
2) not lose the aux gauge center console view when you shift into reverse then need to go through all the selections to restore it.

Yup! So for example if I'm coming on to an on ramp, and go to shift down a gear in preparation to slow down, as soon as you reengage the clutch it'll take off to catch back up to the set speed. I think it's actually part of the adaptive cruise control with stop and go. It's just kind of an odd implementation in a manual.

Never heard of this. I bet that caught your attention first time it happened! That is an odd setup. I would think clutch would automatically turn it off. Appreciate the heads-up.

Please fix the cluster theme. I like my screen to show NORMAL but it sporadically changes it to TRACK mode. I can sometimes go 2 days with it staying in NORMAL mode then the next day, out of the blue, it will change to TRACK mode every time I crank the car that day. It is so irritating!!! Is it just me or does this happen to others?

Somebody is taking your car for a spin at night.

If so, I would be woke in the night when it cranks up. LOL. We recently had Pypes catback exhaust installed since my car came with non-active exhaust.

I prefer 24-hour clock display. So I change the setting to that but then a day or two later it's back to 12-hour.

Two buttons on left side of steering wheel: adaptive Cruise Control and regular Cruise Control. Regular doesn't work properly if you selected adaptive as your preference on the setup screen...

I don't think you get the choice on the buttons. You get the choice of standard, adaptive, intelligent (if fitted) in the screen and then the buttons work as selected on the screen. You can't have two 'types' of CC at the same time.

For Dark Horse Owners, the Car Graphic on the screen shouldn't have a GT Emblem, should be a Dark Horse.

Custom modes reverting back to normal after a few cycles and the clock 24 hour mode back to normal after a few cycles.

I won't duplicate many of the previous good suggestions, but will add a new one: How about a good old fashioned "scan" button for the FM radio? I realize the snot-nosed kids who programmed (but not developed) the infotainment system just listen to their phones, but for us older drivers traveling outside our home regions it would be a useful feature.

Haven't listened to FM radio in decades. Love my SiriusXM.

I was changing around the splash screen graphics with FORScan just a few days ago. But not the badge. Lol.

I used FORScan to change to 24-hour display a few days ago. It's still displaying in 24-hour mode.

I have an auto and it does not show the current gear on the display UNLESS I am using the paddle shifters

Just changed this the other day using FORScan. Continuous Gear Display. Shows current gear all the time.

Note: I checked all the standard dash modes, but need to check the Fox body and 67-68 themes.
