Official summary
Some 2021-2022 Edge vehicles may exhibit a concern during an accessory protocol interface module (APIM) software update where the vehicle fails to recognize the universal serial bus (USB) drive or center display screen does not acknowledge USB programming has started. If the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS) application titled Module Update Repair has been performed previously but the vehicle fails to indicate that the USB programming has started, inform customers that they can continue to drive the vehicle and engineering is currently working on a solution, expected by the end of August
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
