2022 Blue Cruise Dealer Update

[Cranbery]

Hey all, took my '22 tremor to the dealer for first oil change and two recalls, they also noted that something came up to do a blue cruise update, takes like 9 hours.

The service was surprised my truck already had working blue cruise, which I explained the '22s already have (something i assumed they knew?).

They said the note still comes up, and it might be an update for the '22 as well.

Have any of you taken a '22 with blue cruise to the dealer? Did you also get this update ? I haven't done it yet and I'd rather it not mess anything up - but if it updates the maps I'd like to have it.

I'm not feeling very comfortable with the dealers level of knowledge to the point that i trust this forum more than them.

I also asked about the service bulletin for the rear window rattle and it was all new to them. I knew more than they did about the truck between Google and this forum, was kind of depressing. That's how they all are in Miami -____-

Also, hope no one hits your mirror and cracks the plastic arm, a new assembly is costing me $1600 for the mirror assembly + paint and labor...

9 hrs for an update? Over the air maybe but connected that seems long, sounds fishy, maybe they want to use it for a show floor truck for a day.

My ‘22 Tremor did an over the air update for the BlueCruise a couple months ago (your truck must be connected to WiFi and automatic updates need to be enabled to do this). Not sure if this update is the same update your dealer is talking about

No info on the Bluecruise but I am curious how long the other recalls took to fix. I've already got one of them showing up in my Fordpass app without a truck to even take in.

Re: your comment on knowing more than the dealership - that is not isolated to Miami. I've never walked in a dealership where I didn't know more about my vehicle or one I was interested in than the people in the dealership. It's crazy.

It took them two days for an oil change and the recall so I couldn't tell you. It was a simple reprogram for the trailer brake controller is what I understood though. The jumper harness one is an inspection, but also simple afaik.

Someone on the gen14 forums ran my vin and told me the blue cruise update is already done on my truck and i dont need whatever the dealer said was required on that.

Still need to get the mirror changed when it comes in, and have the jumper harness recall inspection.

The service advisor was so shit he wasn't even there when I picked it up and left no instructions, so the other advisor just let me leave with the truck without paying for anything.... I was like what???

The trailer brake controller, transmission reprogram, and oil change and tire rotation took 1.5hrs 3-4 weeks ago at my dealer.

Well I guess maybe the Miami dealerships are just terrible @Cranbery
