for a second I thought that was for the Sync update, but its talking about new maps, not Sync.Ford wants us on bootlegs. ;)
Didn't the initial page that was up say there was a free update or am I mis-remembering? The update should be free for how long it's taken for them to pump out one map update that will likely be out of date on day one lol.this change happened this afternoon
@HizliBullet t - Where are you getting that message? I don't even see an option for upgrading the maps anywhere.
I have to say that I was going to have to buy updated maps for the MFT system at some point and IF I have to buy updated maps I would rather do it on Sync 3.
That’s pamphlet redirects back to a website posted a few months ago to sign-up to be notified when the maps are ready. I really wish they just update the maps. At this point, my neighborhood is a field in Sync3 though it’s existed for almost 3 years nowSo I stumbled upon this site:
https://why-update-ford.azurewebsites.net/
Appears to be associated with NNG who makes the Navigation maps for Ford and others.
They have an instruction pamphlet that walks you through downloading the updater software etc.

My biggest concern is the legitimacy of the site/software. Need to research this some more.

That probably is the newest version for 2018, and it likely isn't functionally different then the one we can download for 2017/2016 cars.Hey guys, really confused and frustrated. 2018, came with 3.0 build 17276. I followed all instructions, plugged in drive and after 3 minutes, it’s says I am already up to date, removed flash drive, rebooted, and still on 17276. Called Ford, and they said I am latest version, which I know I am not. Any suggestions would be appreciated - already tried another drive, reformatted, redownloaded.
Not surprised a dealer might be clueless.I have no idea who is running things at Ford customer service but I shouldn’t have more info than them. Their answer is that 18025 is not for cars with Nav....
