Don,
Join the club. Ford just needs to fix all of the bugs with Sync 3. What I found is that when I disassociate my device from bluetooth and plug it into the right-hand port...it works fine (my hub is defective). Try using only one interface at a time...i.e. if you're connected via bluetooth, don't have it connected via USB and vice versa.

It doesn't work for me unless I do the above. Also, I don't think you're going to get a whole lot of help from Ford regarding this either based on how they've responded to a number of other problems on this forum.

Thanks for the heads up. I thought the hands free set up was one of the nicest features of my truck. Kind of a bummer

For clarification, are you're following the steps outlined in this article: https://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-...ford-sync.html

Shaay,
I did do the process exactly as shown. My phone says it is discoverable as iPhone. Sync never comes up as a device.

DonMac,

Let's try a different pairing method. It's called reverse pair: https://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-...our-phone.html
