dabangsta Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Not that I am stalkerish, but being able to tell where my vehicle is, within reason, while moving, was very handy. It might be delayed a few minutes, but was refreshable by pulling down. In the past I had used it to help the driver remotely with an alternate route for example, or know how many minutes or hours I have to clean up the house before the spousal unit returns so I don't yelled at. New version of FordPass, among other issues, no longer updates location of vehicle. It will show location when it is parked, and it will show the last location on when vehicle was stopped or started (so even after traveling an hour, the location is the gas station, for example). Anyone else dealing with this? I see other vehicles that have extended functionality in the app are missing it, and frequently when I select Location it doesn't actually show a location (stuck on the same screen), but this is pretty much a feature killer.

garycrist Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Since they updated it, it sucks and I have deleted the broken software. Or, they have taken a play from Mircotheft, and it is a new feature that is now called the FordPas GNDN app! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wubster100 Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 It looks like they are using google maps now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabangsta Posted June 18 Author Report Share Posted June 18 Well, it links to whatever map program you use if you use the directions functionality (which is nice as it shows your location and your cars), but within the app the maps look the same as before, and if I go to directions it goes to Waze.

garycrist Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 I'm sorry if they fixed it since I deleted it. The location function never worked after the up-grade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted August 21 Report Share Posted August 21 Just curious, was this ever fixed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabangsta Posted August 21 Author Report Share Posted August 21 (edited) I don't think so. It either says parked and shows the parked location, or it shows running and it shows the last parked location. Very handy to see it while it is being driven. Updates where fairly consistent, but I didn't need GPS level tracking up the second, just at a glance general location was so so nice. A lot of other vehicles that can do much more, like zone lighting, lost much of that functionality as well.
