Can I upgrade the SYNC®* system to a newer SYNC system?
No, previous versions of SYNC hardware cannot be upgraded to a newer SYNC system. For example:
- SYNC 4 cannot be upgraded to SYNC 4A.
- SYNC 3 cannot be upgraded to SYNC 4 or 4A.
- SYNC with MyFord Touch cannot be upgraded to SYNC 3.
Note: While you cannot upgrade to a newer SYNC system, you can still check if your SYNC is operating on the latest version. To check for software updates please visit ford.com/support and enter your VIN.
