Title: Updating SYNC with new maps and new highway exit numbers
Post by: Peetah75 on September 17, 2021, 07:31:58 AM

Hi EPF Members,

I have a 2013 SHO with SYNC with myfordtouch Gen 2. In my state (Mass) all the exit numbers have changed so I thought updating sync would take care of the changes but they do not update the maps. Calls and visits to ford.com say I need to buy a new SD card for $149. (PRODUCT PART NUMBER GM5T-19H449-AF).

Question is whether there are other less expensive options that anyone has tried and had success? I see the same part on amazon for $80. But can't return it if I open the package to install it to see if it works OK.

Thanks for any info.

I bought mine (A11) on eBay for $30. Looks like A12 (came out Sept. 1st) is $80.

Hi Ta2dResqr, Just saw your reply. You are correct, that A12 is the correct card for my SHO. $149 from Ford and $80 on ebay. However I spoke with a rep who said the latest version does not have the Massachusetts updates, and did not know when Ford would update them. Other than that I love my 2013 SHO. what year is yours? Thanks again for the reply.
