Meanwhile in order to get remote unlock on my RAM truck (via phone) it's like $900 for 5 years. That was one thing I liked about Ford, their tech stuff is (currently) free forever.

- cheeze 4y agoAre you surprised that a car made by FCA is a pile?

- MBCook 4y agoBlueCruise is not free forever. They’re past that hurdle. To be fair, that requires constant road updates and scanning, so there is a very real cost to them.
- whalesalad 4y agomeant fordpass, not the self driving
- MBCook 4y agoAh, yes it’s nice that’s free. Sorry.
- toast0 4y agoFordPass (previously known as myfordmobile or something?) may not have a recurring charge, but my vehicle is on its second obsolete modem. They replaced the 2g modem with a 3g modem for free before I had the car, and some people were offered a 4g modem installation with free labor (but not me), but the hardware is about $300-$400 iirc. My car knows how to be a wifi client for reasons I can't fathom, but FordPass won't work with that. The modem is hidden under trim that's a pain to remove, and the new modem doesn't fit the old modem's mounting pattern, so they use tape on velcro to hold the new one.
