Issue: Cannot default the My Ford Sync system (without Navigation) to Bluetooth audio
Some users are having an issue with when they turn the ignition on their My Ford Sync system reverts to Line-In even though they were using Bluetooth audio when they turn their vehicle off. They would like to have the system revert back to Bluetooth audio instead of having to go through the menus to be able to get to Bluetooth audio or use the voice commands. A Ford customer service representative FordIVTteam actually joined in the conversation and gave the reason why Ford made this change (as it would previously revert to Bluetooth) and the best method to get back to the source they wanted.

Maybe we should start a class action lawsuit? Should be obvious by now they have no will to fix the product they sold us.

QNX is the car OS from Blackberry and is the base for Sync 3 - nothing to do with the first two iterations and I highly doubt they work on the past generations for updates/fixes/enhancements. Those would be left to the original teams which was actually a 3rd party of some sort, but it was written on top of Microsoft CE or Car OS. They probably have some residual teams for fixes or slight upgrades over the next few years, but would not be the same team doing the new Sync. Totally different OS and platform.

Sync is the most annoying of these, that's saying something since I've gotten pretty good at changing out driver's front windows, and accustomed to getting 15-16mpg highway out of the damned thing.

I've given up hope. Between Sync, the gas mileage, and the fact that my F150 keeps getting broken into (three times in six months) I'm shopping for a different truck.

They leave the Suburban next to it alone, and left my GMC that I had before alone too. No idea why it keeps happening, took the system out after the second one.
