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.

Hi @SR17 Apologies, I've been absent for the past month and am now catching up on messages. Could you send me a private message with your VIN and consent to look at your connected vehicle data please ? I will take a look for you.

Just want to say @Rob and team that I bloody love the new camera button. Really great addition and super, super useful when I'm checking my parking 👏👏👏

It really puzzles me how the same car can have so many software features enabled or disabled dependant on not much more than luck.

Hello.
it’s been some while now since 4.2.1.2 was released and I understand that it was an update to the gateway module as a prep for things to come.
would hope to see the new UI, Bluecruise for all, camera button on main sync screen, volume knob multi function (fan speed, temp, seat heat etc), a return of my EV driving data in the app and E-Frunk operation for all.
any time scales or road map?

Hi
I might be impatient but this post is now a month old, which was also about the time we received the 4.2.1.2. I was under the impression that the you were speeding up the updates now. At least it would be nice to know what's going on.
Is there any roadmap for when you will roll out the next updates, and more specifically when we will see the new UI for the 21/22MY?
I've also read that the US Job1 cars now has the frunk button in FordPass. I guess it's enabled remotely. Will we get that as well, at least in European countries with PAAK?
