How do I set SYNC®* Navigation map preferences?

El modo de mapas puede mostrar opciones de visualización avanzadas. First, identify which generation of SYNC is in your Ford vehicle, then select the appropriate drop-down menu below.

Identifying Your Vehicle's SYNC Generation

There are two resources to help you identify your vehicle's SYNC generation:

  • SYNC and Navigation Updates page, which allows you to enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or Login with your Ford credentials, and select Check for update. Your current SYNC generation will appear on the right-hand side of the page.
  • SYNC Visual Reference Guide, which has example images of each generation of SYNC Ford has offered.
