Clock getting reset

For two days in a row I’ve gotten In my truck to find the clock reset. It’s not just a time zone change but the time is changed to a random time. Anyone else experience this happening to them?

Do you have it set to GPS time?

If so, disable it.

Is this setting in the Clock section of Settings because I just see Auto Set option. I will turn it off, reset the clock and see if that resolves the problem.

Has something happened with a satellite that caused this error all of the sudden?

I hope this setting solves your issue.

Whenever I would have this setting on, the clock would always revert back to the wrong time.

Just a heads up, but you may have an APIM (Auxiliary Protocol Interface Module) issue. My truck has an issue where it keeps changing the radio station on its own. I was told by my service advisor that they are replacing a bunch of these under warranty right now. Symptoms include changing radio stations and the clock and other presets constantly being reset.

I'd give it some time. Others may have this same issue and dealerships will probably pester Ford for a fix, and send out an RRT which would probably be a radio software update that may end up fixing the problem. Or ask your dealer if there's a fix for this problem out now for it like maybe an active TSB or RRT for it.
