I updated mine via USB on Thursday... but obviously I didn't do the whole connect to WiFi thing and then power off the vehicle thing correctly because the website still tells me I need an update.

Strange that something so easy is made so difficult. I can start the car with an app but the car won't sync correctly automatically with the update website.

Well I had to buy a USB stick to update nav maps anyway, so I'll give the USB route a try.
If you dont own a USB stick already you should. Plus they make a GREAT way to backup everything important , (documents, bank statments, wedding alblums ,burried treasure maps, ect) and while not perfect they are SUPER tiny and able to be stashed in teh back of a firesafe easily.

Well to follow up I must say I am 0% impressed with this entire update process.

I updated a week ago via USB... connected to WiFi and shutdown the vehicle. I did the same connect to WiFi again a couple days ago hoping to sync my vehicle with the update site as I was told would happen.

This morning upon entering my VIN to check... I get this.

Ford Bronco Sport SYNC 3.4 Build 22200 Now Available sync


That is not my VIN and my vehicle is a 2022... not 2021.

When I log into the Ford site and click on my vehicle it tells me I still need a SYNC update... but the vehicle screen shows my version is update to date... and checking from the vehicle shows up to date.

So I guess I'll just have to accept the fact the craptastic update site just won't correctly show my vehicle update status. ? ? ?

On a side note... I checked for a Map update the other day and it told me my vehicle wasn't eligible because it was <2010 model year.

??????????????????

Then I checked this morning and I see this.

Ford Bronco Sport SYNC 3.4 Build 22200 Now Available ma


I'm downloading the update now. Hopefully my maps will update even though I'm totally expecting the website to continue to tell me I need an update. ??

@Ford Motor Company Please look into updating your update website. It's the worst I've seen. I do love the vehicle though.

:like:

Edit:

Map update via USB was successful. Version updated on vehicle info screen.
