We are now rolling out Ford Power-Up 4 and 5 software updates to our customers in Europe. Details of these can be found later in this post.
Please read this first
To ensure a smooth delivery of these updates we strongly recommend:
The following is also very important to ensure undisrupted delivery:
We deploy updates, when they become available, in batches across a period of time. The vehicles selected for each batch will be chosen at random, so please don’t worry if you see someone online receive an update before you do, we haven’t forgotten you! It may take a few weeks for your updates to start arriving and there may also be a few weeks or more between each update. Your car will need to be driven regularly in order to receive all of the updates, if you are away on your holidays or business without your car it’ll be alright and the updates will resume once you are back home and on the road again.
With the many factors involved in deploying software updates to a vehicle, in a small number of cases, it may take more than one attempt to successfully deploy an update. If you do happen to receive an unsuccessful update please don’t panic, we will manage these situations remotely and ensure re-deployment happens, you won’t need to do anything.
Ford Power-Up Software Update 4 & 5 Summary
Please note: Different vehicles and different model years may receive different updates due to different SYNC 4 systems and different vehicle content.
Many updates are background updates. You will not notice any difference in your vehicle following these particular updates. These are essential to the continued smooth running of your vehicle’s connectivity, over-the-air functionality, and digital products and services such as FordPass. They must all be installed in order to receive any subsequent updates and new features.

Ford Power-Up Software Update 4 & 5 Details
For easier reading, I’m excluding background updates and am only providing details of software updates with notable driver content.
See summary above for applicable vehicles for each Ford Power-Up
Ford Power-Up 4.2.2.1
Ford Power-Up 4.2.2.1 brings several significant updates to SYNC:
Please note: As this is a major update to SYNC, you may find a small number of settings reverting to default. These may include your drive modes and automatic folding mirrors. I would recommend that after this update, you check that these settings are as you require them.

Most things indicate that Ford have a problem which they thought they would solve within a reasonable time but which they are now struggling a lot to solve. But why not be open and honest about it and inform overly patient 21MY owners ? In this way they lose customers.

Lost me already, earlier in my Mach E ownership I’d have chosen another as my next car, not now I won’t, the customer service is shocking.

Good afternoon. Firstly, apologies, I have been away from the business for over 2 weeks.
I've added details of updates for Focus and Bronco.
Also, we are in the final stage of testing the next updates for 21MY and I very much hope to have this completed by early next week, unless something unforeseen happens. Assuming all goes ok, this will enable us to release the next 5 software updates for 21MY and I will post details as soon as they are released. I appreciate all of your concerns and feedback. In this instance, as explained previously, we found we had to make a late update specifically for 21MY which meant the release was pushed back and had to be behind the 22MY and 23MY updates.

Is this the same issue next time or have this late update done my21 and my22-23 equal now in system?
are updates next week also in Denmark?
thanks for updates, nice to hear our fantastic cars are been updated

Hi @Clipsen The 21MY updates will be for all our European markets where we provide Ford Power-Up Software Updates, including Denmark. There will possibly still be a time lag between 21MY and 22MY caused by this late change, however we are working already to minimise or remove that as much and as soon as we can. 23MY has different content sometimes, so is not fully comparible.
