Ive just seen this on the Ford Owners Club website:

'Not sure if everyone is aware but all 2022 Pumas are being recalled due to a fault with the SOS call system, it also seems to affect all modem connections and the Ford Pass app.



Worse they have halted all deliveries until the issue is resolved. There is no current fix available, and no timescale for a fix has been provided.'

If a car was still in transport mode at the time of the announcement then it should have been cleared for release to customer however if the dealer had already removed it out of transport mode then the wait continues. As mine had already been through pre-delivery inspection I fall in the latter

I too am still waiting as my car had been taken out of transport mode. I took the advice of another poster last Wednesday and contacted Ford Customer Service. I was promised an information update the next day. Finally got the information update today … to say there is no further information. So customer service don’t know, my dealer doesn’t know, and I am still in the dark nearly two weeks on. If they have fixed the cars in transport mode why on earth can’t they give some idea to us what is going on. Thank you to my dealer for lending me a car, even if it is an Ecosport. I shall keep pestering Ford.

Hi. Ive just been told my Puma, which was pre-registered and previously booked in for delivery a couple of weeks ago, is now being delivered on Monday. It was delayed because of this recall.

EDIT: The car was not in transport mode, and has had the update. I have got the lease company to phone the dealer and confirm this in person.

Sounds promising, all the best, hopefully they don’t mess you about. I’m hoping for a similar update this week coz it’s just silly now.

I contacted the lease company again based on what was said here and asked them to confirm with the dealer that my car has definitely had the update, not waiting to have it, but had it, and is released for delivery Monday. They assured me thats what the dealer is saying and that other Pumas are also due to be delivered next week to other customers of theirs.

If it doesn't happen then the dealer is lying and we will be having words, mostly 4 letter ones.
