Ford pass app

I have ford 2017 super duty 250 it came with the large screen with navigation and I got a 6 month Sirius subscription, my question is when my subscription ran out does all the associated things that come with the ford pass expire also?

Shouldn’t; they are run by two separate companies.

Sirius has been on new Fords for years. Ford Pass is relatively new.

Fordpass is only good for 5 years. Sirius is only good for 6 months. Hope this helps.

Anyone know if you can sign up for the app and track your truck while it’s enroute? I’ve got the VIN Zane the build is completed, but wasn’t sure if that would work or not. Palsapp.com has showed it Pending for awhile even though my dealer told me it has left the factory.

I played with it last night and have added my vin to Ford Pass, but it appears you physically need the truck so it can give you a code to enalbe full functionality.

Where did you get 5 years from?

This was the only thing I found with a time frame ""FordPass Connect Modem includes complimentary 1-year subscription for remote features excluding Wi-Fi hotspot, and starts with vehicle sale date."

I think the sirius traffic is good for 5 years.

Makes sense that you have to get a code or whatever else from the truck itself - thanks for confirming!

Sirius Travel Link is good for five years but only if one keeps the Sirius service going.

Kinda follows the current theme with these trucks every year, pay more get less.

" FordPass Connect is an optional feature on select vehicles (SYNC Connect for 2017/2018 model year vehicles) and is required for certain remote features. [Service on 2018 and prior model year vehicles includes a complimentary 5-year trial for remote features, excluding Wi-Fi hotspot, that starts with vehicle sales date (after which, fees apply).] [Service for 2019 includes a complimentary 2-year trial period for remote features. Service for 2020 and later model year vehicles includes a complimentary 1-year trial for remote features, excluding Wi-Fi hotspot, and starts with vehicle sales date (after which, fees apply)."
