    Sync 3.4 Update (Build 21020) Now Available on the Owner Site

    You would rather pay $20 per update from Ford rather than spend 10 minutes copying files from your computer to a USB drive you already own...?

    DC area meetup?

    I know there are a lot of us around, I see at least 2 STs a week in the DC Metro area, and recently I keep seeing the same white ST with DC tags in NW DC and a grey one with MD tags on DC 295. Anyway, lets do a meetup. I think it would be cool to meet at the Pentagon and take a drive up or down...

    Remembering which way to turn the knob for Driving Modes: Normal, Eco, & Sport

    I am in eco mode 80% of the time, living in Arlington and DC. Having the car for almost a year I have developed the habit of as soon as I start it, I turn 2 clicks to the right and hit the auto start/stop button with my right thumb at the same time, I dont even realize I do it most of the time.

    USB ports in center console stopped working

    I took a break driving in the snow yesterday, parked in an empty lot and turned the car off. Woke up 45 min later, turned the car on, noticed android auto was not starting. After some investigation it seems that neither the USB-C or A ports are working anymore. Not for charging, not for android...
