Ford Faces Lawsuit Over MyFord Touch Glitches

Ford was already working on the MFT upgrade which is due to be out next month. It looks like a royal PIA to install though.

so far my only glitch is when starting the truck it will sometimes go right to the music
on my USB stick instead of the radio station that was on when I shut it off. And,
it starts off on the same song again and again. I told the dealer and switched
USB sticks, it still does it once in a while.

I bought a stylus at Radio Shack to use instead of touching the screen with my finger,
that seems to work well.

In addition to my phone and thumb drive sync issues, the screen and the back-up camera have blacked out completely. When it blacked out, it gave me a warning message to not rely on it for navigating my vehicle. It pissed me off but the warning was kind of funny!

I'll admit MFT has it's problems and ford def needs to fix it but wtf is $5 million gonna fix? Because you leased a truck that had a faulty entertainment system you feel that you can quantify those damages?!

I think $5 million is small potatoes. The distractions that the MFT issues have caused me are dangerous. I hope this (and other actions) lawsuit at least forces Ford to fix the issues. I'm hoping that this is purely a software issue, and not one that requires a recall of some kind to switch out faulty hardware. I hope to see more pressure on Ford to make this right.

Personally, if it came down to it, your stereo distracting you causing you to crash is your own fault. I agree that this is a good push for ford to fix the problem but ultimately it's your responsibility to pay attention while driving.

You don't get it. Today's society is all about everything being someone else's fault and suing for any reason (and no reason) because they can and because they want someone else's money.

We have way too many lawyers and now, we have way too many lawsuits. This country needs tort reform badly but it won't happen because the lawyers have so much influence over Congress.

I hope I don't get sued for saying that.
