Currently in 10 Ford vehicles, AppLink enables drivers to use such apps as Pandora and iHeartRadio. Ford SYNC is available as either optional or standard on every new Ford sold in North America. Those in the market for a 2013 Ford Fusion or Flex are in luck, as both models will come fully SYNC'd.

Have you broken into a Ford lately? The 2011 Ford Sync includes unique features that might initially make some Fords and Lincolns attractive to thieves. It may also have you underestimating the true cost of Ford’s SD Card Premium Navigation. It’s all because Ford now bases its newest navigation system on an easily removed SD Card that lets you choose to add factory navigation at any time, so long as your car has a built-in color LCD display, called MyFord Touch.
Ford and Lincoln will offer SD Card Premium Navigation for $795 on four models in the next year, starting with the Ford Edge crossover in a few weeks. If you don’t listen carefully to how Ford created the SD card navigation system, you might think navigation will only cost you $795. If you’re a thief, you might think this is a great opportunity for car-equipment thefts not seen since the days of uncoded car radios and CB radio.
Navigation Capabilities on All MyFord Touch Cars – But It Ships Disabled.
Ford explains: When you take delivery of a Ford with MyFord Touch or Lincoln with MyLincoln Touch, you get a vehicle with an 8-inch touchscreen and you also get the navigation application embedded in the car. But it’s no good without the navigation SD card, for which you pay $795, and then Ford activates the car and enables navigation. That apparently means you can choose to have factory onboard navigation the day you take delivery. Or, later on, you can choose between factory navigation or a third-party portable GPS system that will be clunky, take up space on the windshield, and cost half what Ford charges.

A Magnet for Thieves? Maybe Just Once
Car radios were a target for thieves in the 1970s and 1980s, just as CB radio was before that. BMW, the joke went, stood for Break My Window. Brain-dead automakers and replacement radio makers took a decade to respond to the problem. Once they added a simple circuit that required the user to enter a passcode if power to the radio was interrupted (by a dead battery or theft), thefts dropped to near-zero and owners no longer had to display No Radio signs in their side windows when parking on city streets. Ford acknowledges there’s nothing similar – no anti-theft lockout – as part of the pricy SD card that sits in a slot in the console. But that’s because the SD card only contains map data that works on Fords and Lincolns with navigation activated, so the card has little or no value to thieves. They may swipe an SD card once but not a second time when they learn it has no value.
“We’re not creating a market for stolen SD cards,” says Ford spokesman Alan Hall, “because they only work in vehicles that originally ordered the capability in the first place.”
Buy Two Fords and One Navigation Card? Nice Try (It Won’t Work)
If you visions of being a two- or three-Ford family and moving one SD card among multiple cars, that apparently is a non-starter.
If you visions of being a two- or three-Ford family and moving one SD card among multiple cars, that apparently is a non-starter.
“The SD cards are not locked to individual VINs, so technically it is possible to switch from MyFord Touch-equipped vehicle to vehicle,” says Ford spokesman Alan Hall. “But, the navigation capability will only work if that vehicle was originally ordered with the navigation option (and therefore received a SD card upon purchase).” In other words, you could use a the SD card from your MyFord Touch car in your MyLincoln Touch car only if you order both cars with the navigation option.
Sync Isn’t Done ‘Til Garmin Won’t Run?
Ford’s move also may appears to be a pre-emptive strike against open standards. (Disregard for a moment that at the USB end of Sync, Ford is the most open of automakers, allowing virtually any device to be connected to the jack so long as it contains music.) Ford isn’t providing a open path from the SD Card socket to the touchscreen display that lets any well-behaved application be controlled by the touchscreen and voice interface.

Ford isn’t providing a open path from the SD Card socket to the touchscreen display that lets any well-behaved application be controlled by the touchscreen and voice interface.
Ford’s Hall says that any application that wants to work with Sync and MyFord Touch would have to be approved and tested by Ford and that’s how apps such as Pandora came to be available. That odds that Ford would let a Garmin or TomTom put a complete navigation app on an SD card (it would fit) and then charge half of Ford’s $795 seem, ah, remote. (My words, not Ford’s.) That still raises the possibility that hackers will try to jailbreak the Sync system and make the car work with the navigation app that’s already there, plus a set of third-party maps on an SD card.
The Real Cost of SD Card Navigation: It May Be No Bargain
Most integrated car navigation costs $1,500-$2,000, so Ford’s $795 seems a bargain. Here’s the fine print: To use SD Card navigation, you need MyFord Touch or MyLincoln Touch, and that’s $1,000 or more. On the build to order part of Ford’s site, for some models of the Ford Edge, MyFord Touch and a rear camera are a $1,000 option. Alternatively, some cars may call for the Rapid Spec 202A package that’s $2,500. On high trim-line models such as the Ford Limited and Sport, MyFord Touch comes standard. on the lower and midrange SE and SEL trim lines, cars built without MyFord Touch get a smaller 4.2-inch LCD display (it’s called MyFord) that won’t work with SD Card navigation but it will work with Ford’s TDI (Traffic, Directions and Information) service that’s free for the first three years of ownership.

Arrives Fall 2010
Ford’s SD Card Premium Navigation system arrives shortly, starting with the 2011 Ford Edge in late summer, the 2011 Lincoln MKX (the Ford Edge counterpart) this fall, the 2011 Ford Explorer over the winter, and the 2012 Ford Focus in spring 2011. It’s part of the Ford Sync System. To get navigation, you need a Ford or Lincoln equipped with an LCD display, which is a $1,000 upcharge on mid-trim models along with a rear backup camera and upgraded instrument panel, standard on high-trim models. The touchscreen is called MyFord Touch on Fords, MyLincoln Touch on Lincolns; MyFord Touch is part of the three-year-old Sync initiative that offers Bluetooth and a USB jack at low cost ($395) or standard. For details, see Ford Breaks the $1,000 Barrier: $795 for SD Card Navigation.

The MyFord Touch System's 8' LCD screen, as implemented in a 2011 Ford Edge
MyFord Touch (branded as MyLincoln Touch on Ford's Lincoln brand products[1]) is an in-car communications and entertainment system developed by the Ford Motor Company, based on Microsoft technologies. The technology was factory installed with Ford product offerings and was based on the Microsoft Auto 4.0 software platform. It was regarded as the next-generation of Ford Sync. Announced in January 2010, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the technology launched with the 2011 Ford Edge. Reviews of MyFord Touch were overwhelmingly negative. A USB drive, self-installed software upgrade became available in March, 2012; this update was mailed out free-of-charge to all Ford customers, and Ford also offered free installation of the update by any Ford dealer. The update did not address continuing problems with light-touch capacitor switches (on cars so equipped) that control many functions.[2][3][4][5] Several updates have since been released which allowed for more natural speech recognition, simpler Bluetooth pairing, and refinement of the on-screen interface and menus.[6]
Overview[edit]
MyFord Touch promised to enable drivers of Ford cars to seamlessly integrate nearly all mobile phones, PDAs and digital media players into their cars. Operation of these devices, utilizing advanced Ford Sync functionality, was performed using voice commands, touch-screen inputs, the vehicle's steering wheel, radio controls, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. MyFord Touch is also capable of receiving text messages and reading these text messages aloud to occupants of the car.[1]
Fulfillment of the system's promise has fallen short, with thousands of MyFord Touch owners complaining that the system is unreliable, that it crashes without warning, that it fails to respond to commands, and that it fails to integrate with common mobile devices, such as the iPhone. Ford reliability ratings, both by Consumer Reports and J.D. Powers and Associates have plummeted because of the defects in the MyFord Touch system, and Consumer Reports recommends that new car buyers not consider Ford or Lincoln models equipped with MyFord Touch or MyLincoln Touch.[3][4][7][8][9][10]
As a stand-alone option, the MSRP for MyFord Touch is $1,000. Purchasers of this option get the MyFord Touch system with two driver-configurable 4.2' color LCD displays in the gauge cluster, one 8' color LCD touch screen in the center stack, a media hub with 2 USB ports, SD card reader, RCA video input jacks and 5-way controls located on steering wheel; Sync voice activated communications and entertainment system (Free three-year pre-paid subscription for 911 Assist, Vehicle Health Reports, traffic reports, GPS-based turn by turn driving directions and information services).[11]
Features[edit]

- Vehicle Health Report: Vehicle Report provides a personalized online report for the vehicle showing vehicle diagnostics, scheduled maintenance and any recall information. Vehicle Health Report allows users to schedule car service online, directly with the users' preferred car dealer, directly from the personalized online report. (Not available outside North America). This service discontinued on August 1, 2018.
- 911 Assist: A form of Advanced Automatic Collision Notification, when sensors detect the vehicle has been involved in a collision involving airbag deployment and, on certain vehicles, where the emergency fuel pump shut-off is activated, 911 Assist puts the occupant(s) of the car directly in touch with a 911 operator. 911 Assist provides a 10-second window where occupants have the option to cancel the call before dialing. Where occupants of the car are unable to speak, 911 Assist delivers an emergency message to the 911 operator (Not available outside North America).

Versions[edit]
The current version of MyFord Touch is 3.10 (11/2016). Changes in this new release from the previous 3.8/3.7.11 releases are as follows:
- Hazard switch illuminates on Focus / Escape with ignition off and park lamps on
- Next Track / Previous Track controls from SYNC touchscreen
- SYNC Maintaining Repeat / Shuffle settings that were set on the device side
- Compatibility updates for the latest phone and media devices
- Siri Eyesfree support for Apple (added in 3.8)
- Reconnect Bluetooth device automatically (added in 3.8)
Customers can download the software update and install it from a USB drive, but only if they have a compatible vehicle.
In March 2012, Ford Motor announced a major update to MyFord Touch (and MyLincoln Touch) software that is available though dealerships and self-install upgrade kits mailed to customers. The MyFord Touch software update is provided free of charge to all existing customers. Customers will have the option to self-install the update, or they can go to any Ford dealer for installation. The USB drive update software, and SD cards to update the navigation map data, were mailed to all MyFord Touch customers starting 8 March 2012.[4]
Ford Motors does not release all MyFord Touch firmware versions for all supported vehicles. For example, version 3.8 is available for a 2014 Ford Escape, but not for a 2011 Ford Edge (as of 8/22/2016). However, in this case, version 3.8 can be installed and runs successfully on the Ford Edge.

Criticism[edit]
Unreliability of the MyFord Touch system has been cited by J.D. Powers & Associates as the primary factor contributing to a decline in Ford's standing in the 2011 'Initial Quality Survey' of new car purchasers.[13] The study ranked 2011 Ford vehicles' initial quality in 23rd position, down from fifth position in 2010. The ranking of Lincoln vehicles, a Ford subsidiary that also uses the Touch system branded as 'MyLincoln Touch,' declined from eighth to 17th place year over year. Consumer Reports recommends that no one consider buying used 2011 Ford Edges equipped with MyFord Touch systems.[14] As Ford has expanded availability of its MyFord Touch system to more vehicles (e.g. the 2013 Ford Flex), Consumer Reports has downgraded its ratings for vehicles so equipped.[5]
Early purchasers of the first generation MyFord Touch system complained that MyFord Touch systems crashed without warning, did not reliably respond to touch commands, and often failed to sync with mobile phones and iPods.[3] The March 2012 MyFord Touch upgrade, addressed some of these performance issues, however even the latest MyFord Touch systems (on the 2013 Ford Flex, for example) use capacitive, rather than standard, switches that lack positive feel and are extremely difficult to use with gloves on.[5]
Initial reception of the March 2012 software upgrade, which overhauled the user interface and addressed many performance issues, has been largely positive. There has since been several incremental software upgrades, addressing some issues that have plagued the system since its introduction, such as touchscreen menu lag and voice recognition commands.[15] However, problems remain, and some owners continue to experience difficulties with the system, even with the new upgrade fully installed. As a result of falling reliability rankings and widespread customer complaints, Ford announced they would extend the warranty on the MyFord Touch system to five years with unlimited miles, up from three years and 36,000 miles.[16] Some owners have expressed their hope that Ford will continue upgrading the MyFord Touch system until it fulfills its original design promises; meanwhile owners must make do with remaining glitches.[4][7][17][18][19]
In order to address the many criticisms on the Microsoft-powered system, Ford decided to use Blackberry's QNX CAR Platform for Infotainment beginning in 2015, referred to by Ford as Sync 3.[20] This QNX-based system has been shown to be much more responsive and stable.[21] Unfortunately, it does not appear that Ford will allow owners of vehicles with MyFord Touch to upgrade to Sync 3.
End of Life (EOL)[edit]
Ford has yet to confirm when it will officially stop producing software updates for SYNC2. Whilst 3.8 was thought to be the last official version, 3.10 was released to address certain bugs in Nov16. This has not been readily available in Europe, where Ford does not have a customer self-service portal and dealers are not always willing to tamper due to the very slow download times for the update and the low success rates causing total failure of the unit. Only certain technicians are trained to perform the upgrade leading to limited knowledge and natural avoidance in performing the upgrade in case of problems. A service bulletin regarding the software update suggests that unless specific problems are encountered with the device then the software update should not be performed. Once updated it is impossible to downgrade.
With such natural demand, the update has appeared in an unofficial form on most Ford forums and has been successfully installed by many, without any issues.[22]
Discontinuation[edit]
SYNC2 was officially discontinued as of Q4 2015 and is no longer available as an option to order. New vehicles ordered with the option and built from Q4 2015 onwards should automatically be fitted with SYNC3 depending on build cycle. Existing stocks are being held back for repairs & replacements as a significant problem still exists in early models and will be covered under warranty if the customer happens to notice the flaw. This only effects EU models and only when combined with certain other options. E.g. climate control. Affected vehicles under warranty can be replaced with the SYNC3 system to eradicate the issues that exist with SYNC2.
In a confidential document circulated around dealerships in the US in Q1 2015 and Europe in Q2 2015 dealers were encouraged to push the SYNC2 system to reduce stocks notifying them of advance warning of the discontinuation in Q4 and only offer SYNC3 if the customer specifically asked for it. SYNC3 has been available as an option to order on certain models as far back as Q1 2015 and was extended to additional models in Q2.
In certain models SYNC2 & SYNC3 are directly interchangeable. However units equipped with Navigation require replacement of the USB hub. All versions require replacement of the GPS Antenna, usually hidden in the dashboard.
SYNC2 Warranty[edit]
Any units which have failed and where the vehicle is under warranty will naturally be rectified under the warranty scheme, however it is likely a SYNC2 unit will be replaced with a SYNC2 unit where on-hand stock permits, unless there are repeated reproducible problems and the customer has noticed one of the many operational issues that exist. Ford has a strict policy relating to repeated failures of a component and this falls into that category suggesting fitment of a SYNC3 unit where applicable to prevent further failures would be an appropriate solution.
An internal document circulated in Q4 2015 stated that any new vehicle from Q1 2016 onwards fitted with SYNC2 upon delivery should be replaced under warranty. This was to safeguard the batch building and storing of vehicles being equipped with the older option and making it to market during the cross over period. This also safeguarded against dealerships pre-ordering vehicles and storing against possible future orders.
The document also stated that the numbers expected to be effected are insignificant. The document stated “Preserving the brand image is paramount”
