Thought I’d try again.

Removed the car from the app, whilst on Sync 3, went to connectivity settings in the FordPass Connect app and watched all the options disappear.

Then and only then did I add the car back on the app. This time it let me switch on Local Hazard Info.
So before you couldn't switch the option on in the connect app settings?
Does your app on your phone now show local hazard in the subscriptions?
Nothing on the phone app, all set on Sync 3, was greyed out on the Connectivity settings on the car till the most recent attempt to reinstall. Then it allowed me.

Now the licence shows up in the phone app.
Thanks. Tried it like you said and now all working ok.

I picked up my car two days ago and Live Traffic and Local Hazard only just started working today. They were greyed out previously. I set up the Wifi on Saturday, clunked through the vodafone setup and they emailed me saying some change was going to happen to my service in the next 24 hours. I guess they took Sunday off, but it's all working now. I'd love to be able to tell you exactly what I did on there but I was making it up as I went along and the Vodafone website is a bit shit.

As Paul said....my FordPass app updated itself today, Local Hazard suddenly appeared in App subscriptions and it can now be enabled in the car too....although I haven't encountered any hazards yet to test it out!

Something to do with rediculous privacy rules here.

But it wil be iniciated this year. :D

Well, I failed at the first hurdle! Where's App subscriptions in FordPass?
