What are the SYNC 4 navigation options?
Where equipped with embedded satellite navigation, your SYNC4 vehicle offers the following benefits:
- Always-on navigation: It stores maps and can continue routing, even when your adventures take you out of mobile coverage areas.
- Turn-by-turn instructions: Enter your destination using enhanced conversational voice recognition, or by using the infotainment screen. Then allow the audible and visual turn-by-turn instructions to guide you on your way.
- Simple, convenient search results: Point of interest searches are intelligently prioritised to provide richer, quicker results, based on your location and personal preferences.
Connected Built-in Navigation
- Real-time information on: live traffic updates provide the fastest routes with alerts (such as speed limits, safety cameras, signs, signals and warnings) and re-routes based on incidences like accidents and congestion. Plus, get the latest weather reports along the way.
- Updated maps: Along with updated maps and route information, access points of interest such as landmarks and businesses.
- Updated map data is used by certain Driver Assist features, such as Traffic Sign Recognition, Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, and Intelligent Speed Assist. These features will still operate without Connected Built-In Navigation, but over time the map data may become inaccurate or out of date, which may impact feature reliability. If you use these Driver Assist features, we recommend that you keep map data updated via Connected Built-In Navigation.
- A 1-year trial of Connected Built-In Navigation is included, starting from the vehicle's warranty start date (not the date the modem is activated).
- If a subscription is not purchased after the trial ends, you will have access to embedded navigation. However, additional functionality such as live traffic and updated map data will be discontinued.
Note: Users must have created a FordPass App account (terms apply), have fully activated the vehicle’s FordPass Connect modem and have SYNC Loca on set to ‘on’ to use this feature.
Smartphone Navigation
Where equipped, your vehicle offers navigation via your smartphone device with Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™.
