    ST vs Aviator

    New APIM installed. GPS/Sync system working much better. First ignition in the morning still getting the dreaded crossed out GPS symbol, but, the GPS is correctly tracking my location? Next ignition, it clears and everything works. Still seriously considering the Aviator.

    Problems with Radio, GPS, and Collision Assistance

    My, GPS has been a problem for the better part of this year. I performed several soft resets and hard resets as well. Nothing worked. The dealer replaced the cable from the unit to the antenna and eventually the Antenna as well. They attempted doing some software upgrade (not available to us...

    Sync 4

    Pretty clear that the Sync system is awful. Is there an aftermarket replacement that can replace it with better reliability? Preferably one that fits and looks same physically.

    ST vs Aviator

    Ok, so the Sync / GPS and other technology issues are driving my OCD into overdrive and grating on my nerves. Does anyone have any experience with moving from an ST to the Aviator? Do the Lincoln vehicles suffer from the same technology issues? I am contemplating trading the ST in for one.

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

    A big part of the driving experience is the Sync3. You would think that Ford could do a better job getting that to work!

    I updated to 21194 a couple weeks ago. SiriusXM sporadically skips with no sound for a 2-3second at a time. No big deal?! The last few days however, the Navigation has not been working. I get the red crossed out GPS symbol. While driving I can do a soft reset and it works, but only for a brief...
