When using the ford app, whats the range to start stop your vehicle

[joordan]

All you need is the VIN. I can think of at least 2 or 3 members here on this forum that got it to work pre-delivery. They entered their VIN on the app and it said to accept it on the trucks screen. Someone on the other end accepted it eventually, maybe just a driver clearing the screen accepting whatever the screen said, and voila, they had Ford Pass access. They could track it on the app so they knew where it was from Ford plant to dealership. It has happened. Probably not wise.

when I got mine delivered I went to the dealer to check it out as it was unloaded from the truck. the system was locked into a "pre-delivery" mode, like the valet mode....in that mode you could not do anything else than starting the car and driving it up to 5 mph, usable to just load/unload the truck. modem etc was all disabled, so at least here in EU even with VIN, there was no way to hook up the truck as modem was down

That's interesting, probably just a regional thing, I don't think NA had those restrictions. I remember in some of the early threads, everyone was trying to enter the VIN on the Ford Pass app trying to get it working and a couple people reported it working. I tried but eventually it was denied.
