Never hurts to ask my friend

I can't find the address but I expect paperwork to arrive in the mail any day now. You can try this # Ford Motor Company Corporate Office | Headquarters 1 American Rd. Dearborn, MI 48126 (313)322-3000

I emailed Ford HQ offering to beta test the new MFT interface and received a phone call from Ford several days later. The phone call was about whether I was happy with the MFT. I am not positive my email and the phone call I got was related but I'm guessing it was

I too received the 3 year 45,000 maintenance. I have a lease so I am hoping they make some concessions when I go to lease a new ford in 2013. Seeing as half the time I have had my 2011 it was less then expected

With all these MFT issues has anyone experienced auto temperature control issues? My MFT does not have the temp on a consistent temp even though it's always set for either 70 or 72. I have had other cars with auto temp control, even my 2007 Edge and they were all as they should be. My 2011 is hot one day and cool the next

It will be on a USB thumb drive plus if you have navigation an SD card will also be sent

Congrats, ii is a great car and if you don't know already they are making MFT even better next month through an update

According to the CNET podcast it was in fact for MFT

Possibly not Kenwood but CNET reported last week that there is in fact a replacement for the MyFord Touch system. I'll try to find it Found it http://ceoutlook.com/tag/ford-sync/

“A few years from now, it might be common to see dark, dead touchscreens in the middle of dashboards. Non-functional or unusable in-vehicle systems could detract from a value of a vehicle if — as in the case of MyFord Touch — they’re the only way to handle core functions like climate control or volume levels.” Honestly didn’t think much about this. But does have me wondering what would happen if something goes bad in the future. I think many of the parts are already near the end of their life cycle, so finding replacements will be tough unless Ford stocks a bunch which I doubt. I would also guess that there is a fair amount of proprietary connectors, drivers, etc that make drop in replacements almost impossible. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I believe it's Kenwood that already has a plug and play replacement screen for the MyFord touch interface. Keeping all the functionality including Sync, etc

I will try to find the corporate number for you

I feel Ford has been very responsive to the customers needs. 2.11 doesn't fix everything but it's a vast improvement over the 1.8 or whatever it was back in October of 2010. I was given free oil changes and tire rotations for 45000 miles or 3 years at no charge for my troubles. This offer came straight from corporate not my dealership

Nice news. Hopefully it will be the same here in the US

Cnet Car Tech Live webcast will have a hands on report of the NEW MFT at the LA Auto Show. Expect it to air in the next day or so

For me the 2.11 update solved pretty much all the problems I was having. I did have to reboot once but other then that my phone pairing has been 99.9% every time I enter the car. Yes it can be faster but overall it is a tremendous improvement over how I first got the car back in Sept. 2010. I think it had 1.8 or something like that

How much data is on the card? Someone mentioned it may need a 16 gig card is that true?

I doubt you would be able to copy it. May be write protected

Getting better and better :P

I thought they were referring to another update that can be downloaded now. An update to version 2.11

It appears if you have 2.11 there is no update. Or is it me that can't find it

Settings are right but the system didn't do what it should have. Guessing the next update will solve it

That is fantastic news. I hope it's no later than February

I'm sure it will be in the 4" screen by the speedo. May even be an option to have it by the main screen. I wouldn't worry about it yet

I hope it comes sooner than later. Looks great

2.11 is a big improvement but this appears to be a glitch. Hopefully we will see another good update shortly
