I have a 2025 which does not use SYNC and now Ford uses a Google based infotainment system. The car receives software updates randomly whenever Ford decides to push something. I don't drive everyday and will start the car and get a notification on the screen with the option to read a summary...

I have no idea.

I have a Pixel 9 Pro and almost never use AA and don't use the phone to listen to music or other content and mostly use the Sirius app on the vehicle. My problem is that unless I do use AA the ST won't allow me to talk to anyone on the phone but I can hear them and it won't read incoming text...

It's interesting that you are suddenly experiencing this in your 2021 ST. The 'audio on' start up default setting for my 2025 ST annoyed me ever since I bought it in January and has been a topic of discussion elsewhere on this forum. To my surprise after the last software update Ford pushed to...

Really? I usually leave mine in Normal mode 99% of the time but when I do switch to Sport it seems to perform more briskly and the shifting is different than other modes...but I'm no expert.

I grew up in a town with a lot of wealthy people back in the 70's. I got a chance to ride in all sorts of exotics including Porsche Carrera 911 Turbos, Lotus Europa, DeTomaso Pantera, XKE Jaguar, you get the idea. The pinnacle however was a '72 Ferrari Daytona 365 GTB/4 with the 4.4 liter...

I'm with you and prefer boring white or silver car colors. I really don't find these new gray and tan colors that look like wood filler or glazing putty appealing. To each their own I guess.

I agree with the advice from 2020FordRaptor above. The dealer I purchased my ST from has a worthless service department so I just went to a different Ford dealer in my area and the difference in attitude and helpfulness is night and day. Good luck.

I've used the Dongar adapter for my 2025 ST and it works well and is simple to install. If you need your camera to stay on all the time as you have noted then it's not going to work for that situation.

I'm also not a fan of these odd colors that look like window putty or wood filler, maybe on a military vehicle if they were matte finished? It seems really cheap of Ford to eliminate the wireless charger on a vehicle that costs this much. I like mine and use it all the time.

Here's an update on my experiences with this CSP. Today I brought my ST in for its first oil change and took it to a different dealer than the one I purchased it from. The service advisor noted on checking in that my VIN came up with the 25B02 CSP software update and a 'recall' update for the...

I almost never use remote start but I do like having the option of unlocking the vehicle with the app. Unfortunately, I find Ford Pass is hit or miss with unlocking and only works maybe 60% of the time (and that's with the vehicle sitting in the same spot in my driveway). Good to know about how...

It also covers the wiring for the rearview mirror electronics.

I would agree with you on getting the dealer to fix it on a brand new vehicle under warranty and think most brands would cheerfully do so, but my experience with my Ford dealer suggests otherwise. I had a clip break or fall off on the inside grab handle of the driver's door on my '25 ST. The...

I was originally looking to buy a 2025 Platinum with the 3.0 engine but the dealer had a 2025 ST that I test drove as it was the only one on the lot with the V6. It apparently was the first 2025 they received on the lot when it was special ordered by a customer. As it turned out though he was...

This is a timely post; I just got the Pass App notification that the OP mentioned above. I'm retired so I don't drive a lot and the vehicle can easily sit for 3+ weeks. I've never owned a car in 51 years of driving that demanded to be driven but I guess none of the previous vehicles had so...

Another thing to consider is if rodents chewed through some critical wiring under the hood overnight. I've heard of others getting a dashboard lightshow out of the blue when the day before everything was normal only to discover some rat ate a wiring harness. Good luck.

Nope, never happened again.

You're welcome, the car is a lot of fun in general but has some odd quirks compared to every other vehicle I've ever owned since 1974.

This issue was just recently discussed after being brought up by another member maybe a week or two ago. It appears on 2025 models the default is for the audio to come on when the vehicle is started no matter what you have selected on shutdown. Someone suggested that it would stay off IF you...
