Cruise Control and Lane Changes

[GregTu]

I haven’t experienced the apply some resistance to the steering wheel. The only thing I have noticed is a warning will show up sating put hands on steering wheel. Usually at interstate exits or on a sharp S curve.

I’ve also seen this in construction zones with reduced lane sizes and lane shifts. Didn’t really need the warning as I already took control just in case.

With our limited experience I’m still too nervous to completely remove my hands from the wheel for any long period of time. The best I can do is rest my left hand on my thigh with my fingers lightly resting on the wheel so I can take control quickly. Also lets me know what BC is doing.

Is there a way to see what version of Blue Cruise is installed? We have a new ‘24 that we picked up the first week of October. So no OTA updates so far. I assume we were current at delivery. I think we have version 1.0 as it insists on being in the center of the lane and has a tendency to behave like a new driver constantly correcting if it thinks it’s off center an inch or two. It’s not bad but it makes the vehicle feel a little nervous.

I understand that versions 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 add things like lane change with a turn signal, will stay closer to the lane lines when passing or being passed. This would be a huge confidence boost for me as I like to put the outside tire on, or next to the lane line when next to another vehicle, especially a semi.

If my understanding is correct 1.1 makes the car less nervous.

Any guesses on when we might these in the Expedition?

Thanks,
Greg

I might be blind. I can’t find a version number in the ford pass app. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks

Open Ford Pass app select vehicle then open Features & Setting. Open software Updates. You will see recent updates and version you have. If you don’t see the automatic updates turned on turn it on. Hope this helps.
