How can I force the updates? According to FordPass mine hasn’t seen an update since last summer. I do have it connected to wifi at home.

I got the 4.2.1 update a month ago. This latest update is 4.2.1.2
Wtf, my Bronco hasn't updated in months, last version was 3.5.4 and it's telling me it's up to date.

You have to exit vehicle with keys and shut door with engine running. There’s still some confusion if the update changed that…
Engine doesn't have to be running, if the ignition is on it will honk as well.

Haven’t received the second update yet - still honks.

If it goes honkless, I will be happy every time I stop to pick up the mail from the box.

Tested the double honk this morning. If car running and door open I could walk 2 miles away and it didn’t honk.
If you close the door while car is running it honks. Not sure if it’s always been this way but it’s a start. Please no more double honk @Fordmotorcompany

I think this is how it’s always been. Nothing has changed. The double honk never happened unless the door was shut after getting out with the fob from what I remember.
I don’t think any update that Ford releases will remove this.

All I can say is it did double honk - now it doesn’t. No way to confirm if the SW update had anything to do with it or not. Mine is a ‘23 - wouldn’t think that would have anything to do with anything but - who knows.

Got my second update in a month, this update said it fixed the modem issue with FordPass disconnecting, but the update a month ago seemed to fix that. Then I noticed today when I got out of the vehicle with key fob in pocket, it didn’t double honk. Anyone else? 4/21/23 update:

Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? I’d like to look into this concern on my end.

Don't do it @Bugkillah, run away. They will give you extra double honks.

Well… my double honk went away after the SW update per my previous post. I had the Ford Performance Tune installed and guess what. Good guess. It’s back.

In the new superduty you have the option of turning it off in the vehicle settings, hoping they will bring that in eventually. I received an email recently saying an update will be happening soon but I have not updated since February.
