New Year Service Overdue Bug

We know the effective distribution of the service overdue values (outliers notwithstanding). There's a five year factor in there with a few unknowns, but a calculation based on earlier posts got close enough for my satisfaction.

The conclusion of the list would be that essentially all owners in the forum would be noted. As I see it, the value of the list is now the list itself. You have created a monster with a life of its own, Doc, and I'm proud to be on it, along with @IslandFalconer .

I suspect that requests to get on your list are more about expressing frustration at this software bug than sharing the days over value.

Job well done; I love it. Thanks @TheDocAUS.

I'm a bit late but when I first saw the issue on social media on January 1, 2026 at 8pm CST I checked my new 2025 Grenadier, purchased in November with 12 miles, and the display said 1880 days overdue.
 
It’s going to take a while for IA to resolve any software issues especially as we’ve seen in the past with how long it took for an ADAS upgrade. That said, it’s clear at this point almost every vehicle produced has been impacted by the service reminder bug and will need to go back to the dealer once a fix is published which is no small task.

Knowing all vehicles will have to be physically brought in by owners to be updated are we at all optimistic IA will offer a comprehensive software upgrade fixing other glitches or poorly executed functionality such as TPMS? Or, are they simply going address the service reminder ignoring other potential fixes and make us all come back in repeatedly in the future? Seems this would be their one shot to fix everything and only inconvenience us once. Wishful thinking I know!
Agreed; we'll be waiting a while. I want to be wrong.

I like wishful thinking, but I doubt TPMS, other diagnostics issues, or you name your favorite glitch (I've got a few), will be addressed with this. There is a good list of problems over here -

It has been sitting there for a while and to the best of my understanding, IA has not touched it. I don't think the service overdue bug will open the floodgates of all the goodies IA has been sitting on.

I'm not sure about getting all vehicles back to the dealer. Allow me to express my own wishful thinking. There are many owners in the States and Canada and everywhere else who are many miles and hours from their dealer. I'd like to see an Ineos technician on a road warrior mission. Outfit a Grenadier, several per continent, with everything a pro needs to fix this damn bug. Come to my house and all the other owners over n hours from a dealer.

Frankly, given the response to ADAS and the lack of acknowledgement from Lynn about the software deficiencies I won’t hold my breath. The entire Ineos Overlay needs a re write. And in the time it took for just the ASDS just imagine how long it will take to build a functional software upgrade. There was 3 different patches just for the over speed clicking, so we can expect they will need 3 different patches for this. And that means 3 different software upgrades for all our complaints. I somehow also have not gotten any insight from my dealer that any progress is being made on resetting the service indicator. There is either no appetite to actually resolve these issues, or worse they don’t have the knowledge to resolve the issues.

It would be nice but...

Assuming 25k cars, the roving tech does 4 per day, that would be 6250 days.
At 200 working days per year it would take 1 man 28 years.
So assuming 30 techs globally it would take a year or so. And it would cost 10's of millions.

In all likelihood they will say ignore the reminder until the software can be patched (or counter reset) at your next service. That will be virtually 2027 for some people.
