Please see picture below. Got my new 2026 ST in February, have checked each day in the car menu and start a system update, but it says I'm up to date. I find it hard to believe nothing has been updated since April of '25?

Maybe I'm good I don't know.

Thanks in advance!

That is correct for the Android infotainment. I got a notification a week or two ago saying there was an update to the Ford diagnostics.

That, I don't know. I just got the notice in the message box but I can't seem to find a list of recent updates.

I think it's in "about", there is an area to software. But I'm not sure what that says. I look at it through my Ford App. If you use the app, it will tell you there is a SW update available. The screen in the car will too.
