Curious if anyone else has seen this...
I updated both my 2015 f150 as well as my wife's 2015 explorer to the latest sync version. When our the cars are started now MFT boots to the phone screen. The Screen is blank, and the home icon is not functional. You have to go somewhere else, like Entertainment, then back to Home.
Seems to be every time the car is started. Her car has NAV, my does not. Same symptoms.
Hard Reboot perhaps ?

So far so good. Will try the other car when I get home.
Thanks!

This is what Ford has posted so far on the Siri problem Posted Dec. 18, 2015: Some 2011 thru 2016 Ford vehicles with MyFord Touch and 3.8 software may have a symptom of Siri Eyes Free not working over Bluetooth properly with iPhones at iOS 9.2 software. Ford is currently working with Apple on a resolution for this. For the time being, having the phone plugged into the USB port allows Siri Eyes Free to operate properly. We recommend that owners of MyFord Touch-equipped vehicles have their phones plugged into the USB port to operate Siri. If plugging into the USB port causes Autoplay to start playing USB media, please note that this can be disabled, or enabled, using the process described in the owners manual.

I just bought a iPhone 6S Plus and I have until January 15th to exchange it for a 6. If they don't solve this by then I might have to switch back to the older IOS because this is aggravating.

Siri really doesn't like working with SYNC.
In addition to the source being switched to bluetooth after using Siri, I have also found that sometimes she just quits working. The Siri tone will sound and you'll ask her a question and nothing, and it'll keep doing that until you exit out by holding the talk button.

Dont know if I should throw the phone out the window or drive the truck into a wall
It is sad two major corporations cant work together on releases... it took me 5 minutes in the truck after the OS update to know I had a problem!
