Thanks.
I tried the recalibration procedure. It still does the same thing. I overestimated the drop. It was/is closer to an 1/8th of an inch. Maybe I am just noticing it now and it's been doing that all along.
BACKGROUND
After the IPC firmware update, I noticed two things.
1. The My View settings get reset back to factory defaults 1 of 10 vehicle trips. (Previously mentioned)
2. My drivers side window does not stay rolled up all the way. Example, I went to the touchless car wash recently and of...
If you believe Ford is being more forth coming than other manufacturers, lets review the leaking fuel injector timeline and status.

I'm guessing since the cluster is contains safety related functions, and if the update bricks the cluster and renders the vehicle undrivable, it would open Ford to lawsuits.

At the dealer now. They said it could take up to 5 hours. I’m guessing that the book rate Ford allows, so they want to milk that as much as they can. I told them it shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes.
I’m curious if I had done it myself using FDRS+Mongoose, would it have been recorded as...
I tired to log into my Ford account to check on the status of the recall SW update, and I get stuck in an endless loop of signing in, going to my dashboard, accepting new terms and conditions, and having to sign in again. :facepalm:
