Please keep updates coming. I have tried everything I can to get upgrade. The current system is not reliable. When it dropped me in the middle of the Washington DC beltway my heart stopped. I need the full nav. Tony

Where are these posts located. I am new with the system and not proficient at this point Thank you

I purchased a 2011 Lincoln MKX at the end of 2010. I was asked if I wand to take the standard synch/mytouch system with the phone driving direction capability or have the full blown navigation package. The sales person told me that the basic capability would be more than adequate and gave me a demonstration that was quite impressive. He said that if I was not satisfied with this limited capability I could upgrade in the future to the full navigation capability. I had many problems with the synch/mytouch system and have had the vehicle back at different dealerships at least a dozen times. To make things worse one stay was for 5 days and another for 9 days. Most of the systems now work adequately but the sync services direction providing capality is rottenat best. The voice recognition module is terrible and it is the only means to interface with the direction services module. The even have an operator assist function but it is flawed as well. I decided to opt for the full navigation module since I know you can manually input directional information. I am now told that you cannot upgrade to the full navigation package. Is the lincoln system software that inflexable?? I think ford has really dropped their standards and are using us the general public, as a beta test site. I was told that the ford technical staff was working to allow upgrade to the full navigation package but have since been told by other staff personnel that this is not true. Does anyone have any information about this??? Tony
