I was told by my dealer that the Navigation updates by itself when connected to wifi. Mine does not seem to be current. Does anyone else have this problem or am I supposed to do something as well. Thx in advance

Did you setup your wifi connection for you home? If not it is done via the Sync 3 settings. Also how do you know your Navigation is not up to date? Mine has not had an update since I purchased it in November.

If the Nav is anything like my 09 Lariat F150 you need to pay for updates. The updates aren't cheap and for what i need wasn't justified.

The wifi is for software updates and should update automatically once you setup the wifi with your home network. You can go through the settings menu and do a "check for updates" if you think you are not current.

I do not believe Ford is including free map updates if that is what you are referring to. I believe it is just software.

I do have the truck hooked up to wifi and one of the salesman at the dealer said it is no charge for nav updates unlike before. I was on a road on Friday that was made over a year ago and the nav showed me in a field. Also my Garmin in my work car shows a ramp closed and in my truck does not mention it.
