Ford revised its paid plan terms for connected vehicle services. The updated language states that paid plans automatically renew until cancelled and that prices are subject to change. Previously, the terms required a credit card for plan activation and stated automatic renewal unless cancelled. Additionally, the language describing trial eligibility was changed from 'purchase is required' after the one-year trial to 'a paid plan is required,' clarifying that subscription continuation is mandatory for continued service access.

The updated terms clarify that paid plans for Ford connected vehicle services automatically renew until cancelled and that prices are subject to change. After the included one-year trial period ends, a paid plan is required to continue accessing connected features. The revised language makes explicit what was previously stated in different terms: automatic renewal is the default, and users must actively cancel to stop charges.
What you can do
→ Review your Ford app account settings to confirm your trial end date and understand when paid plan charges will begin.

Previous text The updated terms establish automatic renewal for paid plans following the one-year trial period, meaning users will be enrolled in recurring billing unless they affirmatively cancel. The revised language also states that prices are subject to change, which means Ford retains the right to adjust fees during the subscription term. Under the updated agreement, equipped Ford vehicle owners transitioning from trial must enroll in a paid plan to continue service access. You can cancel the automatic renewal at any time through your Ford app account to halt recurring charges.
