Does my Ford vehicle have FordPass Connect?

You can determine if your vehicle has a FordPass® Connect* modem by your window sticker or your SYNC®** screen. FordPass Connect is an optional feature that gives you a full range of features in the FordPass®† App, including remote start, Vehicle Health Alerts, and recall notifications. 

To determine if your vehicle has FordPass Connect:

  • Check your vehicle's window sticker for FordPass Connect/SYNC Connect.
  • Check your in-vehicle SYNC screen:
    1. Tap Settings.
    2. Select Vehicle.
      • If your modem is activated, the FordPass Connect tile will appear under the Settings menu.
      • If your modem is not activated, it will appear as Onboard Modem Serial Number (ESN).
