I wanted to start a thread for people who were willing to test new versions of MFT for Ford if there is indeed one coming.
I believe the article linked below captures some of the problems people are having with the system with lack of training from the dealers but the article doesn’t talk about all the bugs the system has.
If you are posting and reading this forum chances are you are more knowledgeable then the general population when it comes to the system operation so what better place for Ford to look for volunteers.
When I take delivery of my X on the 17th I plan on paying close attention to how the sales staff introduces the system and try to look at things from the point of not being the tech person I am so I can provide feeback on the forum’s at least.
I don’t own stock or work for Ford but can see their vision with this system and want to help get them back on track. I doubt anyone here will argue the fact that MFT is the single biggest issue with their cars and because the system is offered in most Ford/Lincoln models it’s important it get fixed.
Maybe one of Fords IVT folks will chime in on this thread. If Ford hasn’t thought about sending beta versions of any new updates they really should. Non disclosure agreements are easy to draft and sign and we aren’t talking national secrets here.
Oh, one last thing. Though I really appreciate all the help of Cory and the rest of the Ford reps on the forum we don't need responses towing the company line about how "most customers are happy with the system" because JD power, Consumer Reports and many people here say otherwise.
