I guess that explains why I couldn't get one USB to work with Android Auto!The USB port in the center console has a white-ish clear bezel on the android auto cars and a black bezel on non android auto capable cars
Tried again, mine still looks a little different since it's older but no AA. Cable is good and works for AA in a newer Lexus and RamThat's weird. You could try resetting your head unit to factory and try plugging in your phone again. Maybe you missed a prompt?
If that doesn't work your best bet might be to take it to a dealership with a good service center.
Below is how it is on my car.

You might need to go to a ford dealer with a good service center to get this fixed. There's always a chance the previous owner did something weird that's messing you up.Tried again, mine still looks a little different since it's older but no AA.

Ok. Try unpairing the phone by deleting it from the list.
+19...The 2016 models require a USB hub upgrade for Android Auto and Carplay. You can a new hub from Ford and it installs in your center armrest storage area. Once you have the upgraded USB hub, you'll be good to go from both USB ports. (the one below the dash is connected through the one in the armrest.
Removing the old USB was the first time I used a butter knife when working on a car. Fantastically effective.The USB hub is the fix. 5 minute install. Remove the hub in the armrest console and plug in the new one and you’re golden!
