    Sync Issues

    Wow way back in 2017 and you came back! LOL If anything quality and reliability has deteriorated in 5 years. The generation of products 10 years ago had fewer problems by far.

    Sync Issues

    Welcome to the club! This issue has been annoying me daily since April! Consider yourself lucky if you're not one of the people who has been screwed by their Ford dealership who tried to charge them $1000 or more to replace the APIM out of warranty. I'm not even gonna pay my deductible because...

    Black and blue screen for camera all the time

    Early 2022 my camera was replaced after the software update didn't work. Now it works most of the time. Every few weeks I get a brief blue screen for a second then it goes back to normal. Before replacement the screen would stay blue until a key cycle or Sync soft reset.

    Rough Idle When A/C On

    Infotainment wont stay in dark mode

    For me, the experience was tolerable because I had a good dealer service department, Sheehy Ford in Gaithersburg. No matter how catastrophic the failure they always came through to make it a better experience despite Ford never having a permanent fix for some things like the camera issue. So a...

    If you still have powertrain warranty it may be covered.

    Infotainment wont stay in dark mode

    This is ridiculous and Ford should be fixing this free of charge! I refuse to tinker with this any more or ask the dealer to look at it.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    I agree with the above. These problems are persistent, sometimes intermittent, sometimes more severe. It varies as time goes by. The past 2 days I've seen the top half of the map several times after weeks of only the bottom half of the map showing on start up. Ford better fix this soon. I am not...

    Infotainment wont stay in dark mode

    How do I get the older version of Sync 3? I still have 22251 on my USB drive but that's the bad one.

    Infotainment wont stay in dark mode

    Mine is so bad I can't complete a master reset. I tried several times.

    Infotainment wont stay in dark mode

    The display and background setting is the most subtle symptom which starts the ordeal of no retention of many settings due to lack of memory. I've been dealing with this for almost 2 months. A master reset helped at first until the memory got full again. The most annoying things are radio...

    Shaking and vibration while braking at high speed
