Finally got an over the air message that I was downloading system updates. I checked this screen a little later and the progress bar was gone. Must have finished downloading at the grocery store. Will update when I see that it's actually updated

finally time to order the hub

Default Apple CarPlay questions for 2016 F-150 XLT

I am thinking of buying the HC3Z-19A387-B updated module. I have a couple of questions if anyone knows the answer to before buying it from eBay.

I have a 2016 ford f-150 XLT 302a

1.) When I log into my fordowner account it says I have the most up to date version of sync 3 which it states is 2.0? Will the apple CarPlay work with version 2.0? Or do I need the 2.2 version?

2.) If it doesn't work on version 2.0, what is the best way to get 2.2v? I heard ford released it to the public, I'm not great with bootleg/usb stuff so should I just take it to the dealership to update?



3.) Why is Ford not paying for the updated module and installation. It seems crazy to me that this is not covered under warranty!?

Thanks

Bobby

If you could find a 2016 piece of Ford advertising that states Sync3 with Carplay, you could have have a case. I swear I saw it advertised like that.. but now they went back and added those 3 secret little words.. "with hardware upgrade". I tried to get my dealership to pay for my hub, but they actually laughed at me.

It will work. Don't need 2.2. Not even sure what the improvement is over 2.0.

Does anyone know, is Ford covering the 2.0 to 2.2 under warranty? I read on a bulletin posted a few days ago that Ford was not covering the 2.0 to 2.2 under warranty. I just want a confirmation before I go to my dealer.

No SYNC 3 update is covered under warranty unless its to correct an issue with the current functionality.

Anyone experiencing issues with losing GPS signal after updating to 2.2?

Overall, this update has been a crapshow: glitchy interface, losing bluetooth, and GPS is constantly losing signal.
