It was one Update for 3 hours, over 45 items were updated as outdated during this service run
Navigation has addresses as much as a mile off
My own home is on a different street
Icons are missing from the screen according to the layout spelled out in the book and on the phone with a Ford Sync Expert
Screen has went black twice
Often sends a warning there is No Key Detected -- Often while driving...
There is more

i have used the galaxy s5 and just upgraded to the galaxy s7 edge no issues with either phone, as far as your addresses being a mile off, that is a map software issue 3rd party nothing to do with the sync 3. no key detected also has nothing to do with the sync 3 system, where are you keeping your key when you get this warning, i would suggest changing the battery in your fob.

This ain't my first rodeo here, I think I know where to carry a key, the battery is brand new, both fobs do it.
What part of Ford has had this to solve for six weeks and have no fixes yet???
In fact according to Ford, Key Fob is tied to the Sync System

I spent 2 hours on the phone with a Ford Sync Expert. She told me-- Quote" If the truck has the Option then the Icon should be on the screen"
She also admitted they don't know where they went or how to get them back.
If you look, they are actually there, but hidden in back screens.
Most don't know this, she told me how to find them

They are right there in the book (Both books that come with the truck show them)

As I stated earlier, Ford admitted to me, that they should be.
OK ALL -- For those of you that only read one or two posts and miss half the info
We bought TWO (2) 2016 F-150's
One works flawless
One has so many issues that even FORD is having trouble figuring out why.
Search other Threads, Posts and/or Chat Rooms -- These problems are not a one off to me, they are problematic nationwide and techs admit as much
