Give it a few days to finish updating as that is likely the problem. If problem persists, the I would start looking at weak batteries. It doesn't take much of a voltage dip for these trucks to start turning things off, especially with the heavy electrical load placed on them on a cold morning.

Typical glitch in the SYNC system.

Also, check on the Owner.Ford.com website for a SYNC update.

Never rely totally on the OTA update.
