MyFord Touch
''MyFord Touch'' (branded as ''MyLincoln Touch'' on Ford's Lincoln brand products.〔(MyFord Touch Defines Intuitive Driving Experience ), Ford News Center.〕) is an in-car communications and entertainment system developed by the Ford Motor Company, based on Microsoft technologies. The technology was factory installed with Ford product offerings and was based on the Microsoft Auto 4.0 software platform. It was regarded as the next-generation of Ford Sync. Announced in January 2010, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the technology launched with the 2011 Ford Edge. Reviews of MyFord Touch were overwhelmingly negative. A USB drive, self-installed software upgrade became available in March, 2012; this update was mailed out free-of-charge to all Ford customers, and Ford also offered free installation of the update by any Ford dealer. The update did not address continuing problems with light-touch capacitor switches (on cars so equipped) that control many functions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mark Phelan: MyFordTouch could hamper launches )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Video: Consumer Reports installs MyFord Touch flash update, notes improvements )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2013 Ford Flex received updates, but only some were improvements )〕 Several updates have since been released which allowed for more natural speech recognition, simpler Bluetooth pairing, and refinement of the on-screen interface and menus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ford Motor Company Official Global Corporate Homepage - Ford.com )〕
==Overview==
MyFord Touch promised to enable drivers of Ford cars to seamlessly integrate nearly all mobile phones, PDAs and digital media players into their cars. Operation of these devices, utilizing advanced Ford Sync functionality, was performed using voice commands, touch-screen inputs, the vehicle's steering wheel, radio controls, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. MyFord Touch is also capable of receiving text messages and reading these text messages aloud to occupants of the car.〔
Fulfillment of the system's promise has fallen short, with thousands of MyFord Touch owners complaining that the system is unreliable, that it crashes without warning, that it fails to respond to commands, and that it fails to integrate with common mobile devices, such as the iPhone. Ford reliability ratings, both by ''Consumer Reports'' and ''J.D. Powers and Associates'' have plummeted because of the defects in the MyFord Touch system, and ''Consumer Reports'' recommends that new car buyers not consider Ford or Lincoln models equipped with MyFord Touch or MyLincoln Touch.〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Consumer Reports Slams MyFord Touch )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ratings & Reviews )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What's Hot: Car News, Photos, Videos & Road Tests )〕
