My phone volume stays maxed out, so I'll never notice

Have been experiencing the same issue since updating my Sync 3 to 2.2 as well.

@FORD - Need to get a patch out for this!!

This thread is about iPhones but my pixel xl does the same thing.

I have this same problem also after I upgraded to Sync 2.2. It is very annoying.

I've had my 2017 for a month and keep forgetting to search on this issue. Well, my wife and I about had a heart attack this morning (for about the 10th time) because I forgot to turn the ringer down last night. My wife was cursing my pretty new truck at 6AM. So here I am.

I've changed the setting recommended, above, which will hopefully help with the alarm issue (I keep my phone on silent at ALL times), but please sign me up for a REAL fix.

For the past 6-8 months or possibly more, every Ford car or Truck with the Sync system does this. I don't want to turn the volume control off for my buttons on the left side of my iPhone 7, as that is a useful feature to me. I was just told by a dealer in Seattle that the Sync system doesn't do well if you don't go online and complete the marriage vows with your phone to your own Ford car/truck, BUT it looks like everyone here has the same issue.

I did see where the Ford guy was on this string and now he's gone. Does anyone else know if this problem will go away on another upgrade? I have had this happen to at least 10 Ford cars/trucks through my Avis rentals, and have to laugh at some of the scares...I have the same stories, and even on planes at odd times.

Would it be helpful if I started leaving which vehicle and which Sync update version I experience this with? Maybe research would help Ford get the picture?!?!

And, I don't experience this on my Chevy or in Toyota, Hyundai, and other GM rentals. Was actually happy to see this thread and know I am not losing my mind alone.

thanks

First week with my Lariat - love the truck, but hate this issue! Come on Ford get a fix for this, please.

Add me to the list as well. I can confirm this happens on both my 2016 F-150 and my wife's 2017 Explorer. We both have iPhones. VERY annoying.

Hopefully wilsons66604 has the fix posted about a year ago on page 2 of this thread.

Sorry but this is not a "Fix". It's a workaround at best. A fix is a remedy to a problem without causing other issues or compromising functionality. This just minimizes the impact of a problem. The system is still broken all that changing this setting does is change it so that when the phone connects it now maxes out the regular volume on the phone rather than the ringer.

Which is still a bug plus I've now lost the ability to adjust the ringer volume on my phone without having to dig into my phone settings. Which is still really annoying but better than having a heart attach at 6am when my alarm goes off.

Hopefully Ford will find a real fix for this and not think this workaround is a real solution.
