SYNC problem after last update

Since the last Sync update, if I'm listening to music through USB when I shut the truck down, when I restart the truck hours later (usually after it sits overnight), the radio starts up on AM. Doesn't happen with short durations of the truck being off.

This is the radio without the touch display. Any ideas how to fix this annoyance?

I'd suggest selecting an FM station before shut down.

Hey BCM,

I recommend performing a master reset. You can find the steps here: https://owner.ford.com/how-tos/sync-...html?sync=sync
