The reason for my question comes from personal interest in being an owner of a Ford Explorer 2021 platinum (version sold in Europe). I love the car but for the price I paid, I feel the software is way behind European competitors. The car has 360 cameras and integrated 4g module, but you can’t look at the camera remotely, and I hate installing additional cameras and pulling cables on a car that cost’s 82.000 Euro. Can we get a software update ro make 360 cameras available in ford pass, or a DVR hw module with dedicated sim card to put in parallel to the cameras signals (as Tesla does)?

Sure, let me make sure I understand your question. You’re asking if Ford engineers read this thread so you can suggest they create a system to wirelessly broadcast the backup cameras on the Explorer, kind of like how Ring doorbells have video systems. Is that right??/

honestly couldn’t even find a website to make suggestions. but sincerely I think the 360 cameras should be activated as a camera system (front/rear dash camera) by adding a USB drive.
