What is a Schedule Maintenance Minder?

Scheduled maintenance can be confusing, knowing what is required and when isn’t as easy as an oil change and that is why we created the new connected vehicle feature: the scheduled maintenance minder. This new messaging will provide notifications as your Ford approaches its next scheduled maintenance interval.

What is the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor System?

We understand vehicle maintenance can arise at inconvenient times; let your vehicle alert you when it’s time for an oil change. In equipped vehicles, a dash message alerts you when it’s time to change the oil and filter.

What should I do if vehicle locator stops working?
  1. Make sure location services and app permissions are enabled on your smart device
  2. Make sure you have strong data connectivity (Wi-Fi is preferred, but cellular data will work)
  3. If Wi-Fi isn't available, make sure you're not in a parking garage or other area that'd obstruct cellular data
  4. Make sure that there are no pending mobile software or app updates
  5. Still no connectivity? Try with another device
         - If you can't connect to other location-based apps, there likely isn't a problem with FordPass

  6. If you’ve tried all of the above and Vehicle Locator still doesn’t work, power cycle your smart device
  7. After restarting, make sure the FordPass app is working and can access location services
  8. If this still isn't working, uninstall and reinstall the app
