i believe in the past you may have referenced an overhaul to the mft and just wondered if this is still on the "to do" list somewhere at ford and what sort of timetable has been applied to it. I just returned from a long vacation and while the explorer was a very comfortable car to take the kids in, the mft was very buggy. Problems with slow or no response to initial screen touches, huge problems with multiple iphone/ipod devices in the car at the same time and transitioning from one device to the other via bluetooth and other quirks should be a fairly easy thing to fix.
I do think that ford got a bit "touch screen happy" when designing the interior and perhaps a few more real buttons would be a welcome change moving forward. Regardless, can you say if there is a mft overhaul in the works that will applied to current owners?
Secondly, the maps in the navigation are woefully out of date. There have been two occasions already since i purchased the vehicle 2 months ago in which the nav system did not find the destination or the road simply did not exist. What is more curious is my garmin did find both of these locations and those maps have not been updated since i purchased the unit over a year and a half ago. When will there be a map update?
Thanks
