    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    This was caused by their software so the hardware should be covered under warranty or not. You shouldn't have to pay. I refuse to pay a dime.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    This is the worst it's ever been. I need to get my hands on version 22200 or wait until September and Ford has a new version available online. I had to do 4 soft resets this weekend due to black screen on startup or no audio or both. As for the camera, I decided to quit while ahead last year...

    How to get rid of this annoying Sync pop-up message

    This is part of the many problems if you have Sync version 22251. You run out of memory and the system resets every time you start up. There are many settings that revert to default and the pop-up is one of those. It hasn't happened to me more than a couple of times but other things happen...

    Would you upgrade to LCI 2024 ST or go with something else?

    Same here! I got an ESP for 4 years last December and new tires this month so I should probably keep this thing.

    Error C00A6:07-68 C00A6:74-6C need help

    So far so good. No 4wd fault messages and it drives normal. Besides replacing the sensor they cleared codes and topped off fluid. Here is the work they did in the attached document. Also, the TSB they applied is this one: 21-2270 Ford Technical Service Bulletin (tsbsearch.com)

    Driver side seat control Panel - Replacement P/N

    Turns out mine may not have been broken either. I popped the side piece back in and it's stayed in place since yesterday.

    Driver side seat control Panel - Replacement P/N

    My passenger side doesn't get nearly as much use so it's still not broken.

    Driver side seat control Panel - Replacement P/N

    Poor design and cheapest plastic possible! I have Tupperware made of better plastic! I thought I made sure it was the new part number but apparently wasn't.

    Driver side seat control Panel - Replacement P/N

    Mine broke again. The first one lasted 3 years, this one didn't last a year but I think they broke it at the dealership today when I had my half-shaft speed sensor replaced under powertrain warranty. I had a 4wd fault message a few days ago.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    I asked my service advisor today and he said no fix yet. To make me feel better about my 4 year old, $60K SUV being affected, he said a brand new $110K Lincoln Navigator has worse issues than mine. They can't play any music or use most basic Sync features. So far I guess I'm lucky that most...

    Error C00A6:07-68 C00A6:74-6C need help

    Mine was repaired today and it was replacement of half-shaft speed sensor. It was covered under powertrain warranty so there was no charge or deductible on ESP.

    Error C00A6:07-68 C00A6:74-6C need help

    It has not been diagnosed or repaired yet. They have had my car since yesterday. I'll update as soon as it's repaired. Someone on the other ST forum had his AWD module replaced for the same type of malfunction.

    Top View Camera Issue

    Yeah mine is pretty badly aligned. It seems it got worse when they replaced the rear camera over a year ago. On a positive note, the blue screen issue is almost non-existent since the camera replacement. The new permanent fix makes me nervous and I won't get it until I hear it's a success. I...

    Error C00A6:07-68 C00A6:74-6C need help

    This is from an older discussion 2 years ago. This sounds like the same issues and possible solution. Mine had no messages for about 24 hours and I drove about 35 miles then as I was turning onto my street coming home this evening, all the warnings lit up again. I'm keeping my service...

    Navigation Screen showing half blank

    I bet the people with new APIM will eventually have the same issues if they are using the same version of Sync 22251. I read somewhere that Ford won't allow dealers to install previous versions which are allegedly problem-free.

    Navigation Screen showing half blank

    Yup this is one of many issues with this system for months now. Oddly, once a week or so lately I get a full map then next time it's back to bottom half of screen! The Sirius Travelink weather radar map also only shows bottom half of screen.

    Error C00A6:07-68 C00A6:74-6C need help

    My dealer replaced my CV axles under powertrain free of charge a few months ago. Hopefully this will be the same.

    That's good to hear!

    Modem and navigation issues

    They are really assholes for charging customers for the repair when it's their software update that broke the APIM! I won't take mine in until they update the software. I'm on 22251 and that's when all this started 3 months ago. I have ESP and have a $100 deductible but I shouldn't have to pay...
