- 2016 Explorer XLT
Such a great Explorer! But, after 80,000 miles, the MFT system still sucks! My Garmin from 2007 is still better, faster, and easier to use.
The last MFT update I had was in late-late February (called something like "version #4" not sure). I had to do my second Master Reset yesterday since February. Of course you lose everything in your "FAVORITES".
I can drive for over 10 miles before MFT loads the navigation, and finds me on the map. Won't plot a destination. And so s l o w.
Using an iPhone 5 if that matters. Heard about issues with auto downloading choaking the system. I need to look into that.
Truck going in on the 19th for service to the MFT.
How do I know what update I have? Are there more recent updates since the February one?
This is my forth Explorer since 2003 (03, 05, 07, and the 2011). I'll be buying another SUV in about 18 months, so I really hope Ford is fixing MFT so I can stay in an Explorer, or I'll be looking at the Acadia, Durango, or Jeep.
Thank you.
