What should I be aware of when using the Remote Start³ feature?
Remote Start3 keeps your vehicle locked and secure. If a door is ajar, it will still lock and start. It can be used twice in a row. After that, you will need to start the car manually. It is not available on manual vehicles.
How does the Ford App talk to my vehicle?
When you send a command, the Ford app uses the internet to talk to your vehicle through Ford’s cloud. Once the vehicle completes the task, it sends a confirmation back to your app. If there’s no mobile or data signal, the Ford app features will not work.
What network does the Ford App use?
The Ford app uses a built-in global SIM that connects to Telstra, Optus or Vodafone, depending on signal strength. You cannot access or change this SIM.
Can I share access to my vehicle with other Ford App users?
Yes, once you’ve connected your vehicle as the first user, you can authorise others through the Ford app without needing to be in the vehicle. Up to 10 users can be linked to one vehicle, who have access to the same app features, but only the primary user can add or remove users.
Why should I reset my vehicle and how do I do it?
If you are selling or buying a Ford, a reset clears your data. The Ford app Connect reset removes users but keeps SYNC settings. A Master Reset clears everything. To reset, go to SYNC, then Settings, then General, select Reset and choose your reset option.
How do I delete the Ford App?
If you no longer choose to use the Ford app, you can uninstall the Ford app from your mobile device. If you uninstall the Ford app, this will not delete your Ford Account information. If you wish to delete your Ford Account, this can be done in the app under Account Settings or email Guides@ford.com. To stop the vehicle from sending data, turn off Vehicle Connectivity in SYNC.
