Select a question from the drop-down options below to learn more about the Ford Connectivity Package.
Is the Ford Connectivity Package available for all Ford models?
The Ford Connectivity Package is not yet available for all Ford models. Currently, it is specifically offered for the 2025 model-year Mustang Mach-E and Expedition vehicles.
For future 2025 or 2026 model-year vehicles, it is best to check with your Ford Dealer or visit the Ford website for updates. The package is also not yet available for pre-2025 model-year vehicles, but more information may become available in the future.
When is the Ford Connectivity Package available for purchase?
The Ford Connectivity Package is available only for 2025 model-year Mustang Mach-E and Expedition vehicles, which comes with a 1-year complimentary trial.
When does the trial start? Can I initiate it anytime?
If you pre-ordered the vehicle and signed up for the complimentary trial via the e-commerce journey, the trial for the Ford Connectivity Package starts from the vehicle's warranty start date but is activated by modem authorization (as some features require this authorization to function).
If you did not pre-order, the trial begins on the initiation date through FordPass®†, the Ford website, or Connected Services after vehicle delivery. The trial must be initiated within the first year from the modem authorization date and can be re-activated within the trial period from the initial activation, though the trial clock continues to run without pause.
Does the trial or subscription transfer with ownership transfer (e.g., if the vehicle is resold in 6 months)?
Trial Period
When a vehicle is sold, a factory reset will be completed and your subscription will be canceled within 14 days. The new customer can reauthorize the modem and reactivate the trial for the remainder of the 1-year trial duration from the initial activation start date.
Annual Subscription
When a vehicle is sold, a factory reset will be completed and your subscription will be canceled within 14 days.
One-Time Purchase
When a vehicle is sold, a factory reset will be completed. The Ford Connectivity Package will still be available on the vehicle until a minimum of 7 years from the warranty start date. The new customer must add the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to their FordPass®† App and authorize the modem to gain access to all the features.
Does factory resetting the vehicle cancel my trial or subscription?
If you perform a factory reset, you have 14 days to re-authorize the modem using the FordPass®† App before the trial or subscription cancelation.
If you remove the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from FordPass, the trial or subscription will be immediately canceled.
Does the complimentary trial transfer to a new owner if it has not been initiated yet?
The trial can be activated by the new owner within a year from the vehicle's warranty start date.
Can you separately subscribe to services included in the package?
No. Services in the package are only available via the Connectivity Package for 2025 model-year Mustang Mach-E and Expedition vehicles.
I have a complimentary 3-year Connected Navigation service included with my Mustang Mach-E. What will happen to this service if I choose not to renew my Ford Connectivity Package?
For 2025 model-year Mustang Mach-E vehicles, you can still enjoy Connected Navigation for the remaining 2 years of the 3-year complimentary trial included with your purchase, but you will not be able to enjoy and utilize the other services within the Ford Connectivity Package. At year 4, you will need to purchase the Connectivity Package to continue to enjoy Connected Navigation.
