Hi all, naming this thread as I did in case it works well to turn into a repository for problems identified. I had a strange one the other day that I hadn't seen yet:
Got in and started it after a remote start to find the following:
HVAC was shut off (I always leave it on).
When I turned HVAC back on, AC was turned off and had to be enabled again.
Temp was changed. Set to 72 when I had had it set to 68.
I happened to think to check, and found rear HVAC had been disabled as well.
Finally, CarPlay was disabled. My phone still connected through Bluetooth, but I had to go back into phone settings and enable CarPlay.
I have heard of similar behavior if the vehicle goes through a software update, but I did not see a message saying it had updated, and I have no message in FordPass either indicating an update had occurred.
