    GEN 2 SYNC radio very slow to respond to touch

    I too have an '18 and did I software update via flash drive and tried wifi update search as well yesterday. I'm still on sync 3.0. Is this the last update for the 2018? Thanks.

    Sync 3 update

    i have an april 2018 build on my 802a and just did the sync update through ford website which was very easy. don't know what if anything it will enhance but it went through smoothly. says updates will begin when i drive my car again.
