I have taken to a dealer and they are in process of working with Ford tech line, they are thinking Microphone or EPIM replacement which I think is the Sync3 computer. I have found this echo for the caller (opposite end of us in the explorer) will temporary go away simply by selecting the "Privacy" button on the sync 3 display twice, thereby switching to the phone and back to sync3, lasts for about 10 min and you need to do again. I also found that using Apple CarPlay thru the usb connection the echo issue does not occur because CarPlay uses the Apple lighting cable for all communicatons to sync3. However Android Auto the echo issue still occurs as Android Auto uses the usb cable only for video, audio still uses bluetooth. I agree turning the volume down lessens the echo but it does not go away.
What's interesting is from what I heard 3rd party, is the Ford tech line had not heard of this issue before. However all of you, as well as my wifes company new Ford transit van this echo problem occurs. I have also experienced this echo while talking to a friend from my home land line and he was in his 2015 Ford F350 however we talked for about 20 minutes before I got an echo on the land line of my own voice. I have also heard 3rd party of a 2020 F150 with same issue and dealer replaced the EPIM to resolve.
I have to call back the dealer to set up an appointment.
I'll keep you posted here in this thread.
