Just got the email too. Does this mean we are all getting new vertical screens for our Bronco?? Can't wait to get mine!

Dumb question here, but by email are you referring to the message center in FordPass or an actual email to my personal email? If it's the latter, I haven't seen any recent emails from Ford and I'm not sure I'm setup to get emails. FordPass already has my email so I would think that would be enough.

No email here. Makes perfect sense, I haven't received any software updates in over a year for my Bronco. But that's normal, right @Ford Motor Company ?

This is an example of Ford not being up to speed on their IT department. It is a very easy task to send an e-mail out to only those buyers of a Sync4A system. This specific information is easily found within their data bases.
What makes this e-mail even worse, is that at the top of the e-mail in the left hand corner, so that you read it immediately, it explicitly states "What to expect for your Bronco"

Obviously, their marketing department does not realize that the Bronco does not have Sync 4A, and whoever proofed this e-mail before sending it out, also did not realize this.
It is terrible to see a large business make such basic mistakes. Come on Ford, you can do better than this!

yeah.. is confusing.
A Ford Power‑Up software update* will start its roll out to your BRONCO soon. This software update will be delivered directly to your vehicle over‑the‑air and will enhance the SYNC® 4A user interface with simplified screens.

Yes, an e-mail sent to your private e-mail address from Ford.

Maybe it will fix my XM Radio issue that keeps saying "hardware problem" and "Antenna problem" that my dealership wants to tear my dash apart to fix?!?!?!?

Just received this email from Ford talking about SYNC 4A improvements and them starting its rollout to "your BRONCO" soon. A little bit confusing, are they adapting 4A for horizontal screens?

No!
We have to adapt. Just a little head tilt, 90 degrees to the right!

I wish they would send me out an update to delete sync 4 and credit my account a few hundred bucks. Didn't want it in the first place I'll never use it. Yeah I'm a lo tech old geyser so what? No I'm not being sarcastic either.

I got the email too.

Can't wait for all us owners getting online starting so many threads for the same topic, "HELP! My Bronco won't start after sync-4a failed upload". Its going to be magical!!!!

The dial is physical and has always been like that for the Sync4A. The "A" is the vertical screen.

Have you ever received an update? I have never received an update on my 2022 and took it in and was told I have an issue and a new part was order. I am still waiting for the gateway module to arrive

Last update was April of last year, right after I took delivery. Nothing since then. I took it in also and was told everything is fine and there's nothing they can do.

I've had a couple updates since getting it last year...no issues whatsoever. I think I've gotten 4-6 minor ones and one major one.
