Mine has rebooted once or twice in the 2-1/2 years since I've had it. Not for the last year or so though.

Have you tried a Master Reset?

It can be done on the screen itself.

Go to settings, press General, then scroll down until you see Master Reset,

Read the instructions to make sure it`s ok with you because any and all info you`ve stored in SYNC will be erased after you hit Master Reset, then let the system do it`s thing.

The screen will go blank so don`t get worried.

This should only take a few minutes for the system to reset and reboot itself.

Afterwards, you`ll have to pair your phone again but the system will be just like it was when you first got the vehicle.

Let us know if this helps with your problem.
