Default Sync glitch

Hey guys,
The new sync system in the f-150s.
Whenever Im listening to my iphone connected by sync, it once in awhile skips a song and it seems like a glitch.
Have any of you had a similar problem?

Ya there is an older thread in the 09+ Forum. I have the same thing when i connect my 4S via bluetooth. 25-50% of the time it'll play 20 secs and skip to the next song. Works fine with a cable and sometimes works fine overall. hard to say what it is. I just got my text msgs working over bluetooth so i am not about to unpair/repair it, however that might do it.

Also, if you have shake to shuffle turned on in your iphone, and hit a bump, that might shuffle the song on you.

Yeah it's not on the shake shuffle thing, but it randomly does it. It's getting better though. Nice to hear I'm not the only one . If I take it to ford do you think they'll fix it?

It's a problem with the iPhone not Ford or sync. My droid Razr Maxx plays flawlessly. Gotta realize Apple and Microsoft do not mix most times.

That is a good point! I never thought about that before. It probably is because it's an iPhone. I might just stick with the USB cord.

i am sure that ford wont help. It does work for me 50/50. The cable sounds better anyway. If i am going far i'll plug it in, otherwise i'll try out the BT or listen the radio for the short drives.

It's pretty common.

Hmmm so its quite common. Do you have an apple product that you use with sync?
