Why should I download the Ford app and activate my vehicle modem?

Because it unlocks access to features that let you remotely control and manage your vehicle.

It also lets you remotely check your current mileage, fuel level, and tire pressure.

Downloading the Ford app and activating your modem is also the first step in activating available Connected Services complimentary trials and paid add-on services like BlueCruise.

When not connected to Wi-Fi, software updates will be delivered directly to your vehicle using the vehicle modem via cellular connection.
