Why is my Vehicle Location not working in the FordPass®* App?
If your vehicle's location is not updating, the location is not showing or the incorrect address is displaying, use the following troubleshooting steps:
Vehicle Location is Not Updating
- Confirm that you are on the Vehicle landing page of FordPass.
- Swipe down from the top of the page to force a refresh of your Vehicle Location.
Notes:
- FordPass should display an Updated Just Now message above your Vehicle Location.
- If your screen does not show the Updated Just Now message, this is a symptom of a larger issue, such as a non-communicating modem.
- Verify if your other remote commands are working, such as:
- Remote Start**
- Lock and Unlock***
- If your other remote commands are successful, please select to contact a Guide for additional assistance.
Unable to Locate Your Vehicle
- Ensure that you have allowed the required app permissions in your vehicle's location settings.
- Android™**** Settings - Select Settings > Apps & Notifications > Scroll down and select Advanced > Permissions Manager > Location.
- Apple®***** Settings - Select Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
- Ensure Vehicle Location is enabled in your Connectivity Settings menu. See the Customer Connectivity Settings Overview topic for additional information.
