Hey guys! It's been a while! But I'm back but with a 2016 premium PP GT! I'm so stoked! Anyways I just got this car and was wondering if I'm missing something here. I seem to not have the navigation icon on my sync 3. I have the premium package with all the goodies and no navigation. It is a used car with 8000 miles on it. Could the "valet" from the previous owner be locking me out from getting to the navigation? If it's something simple, cool. If not, I may have to call the dealer. Thanks for your help!

Hey Archer Mike,

Congrats on your new GT! SYNC 3 comes equipped with or without the built in navigation system. Please send your VIN in a PM and I can check it out for you!

thats going to suck!!! Anytime you see the sync3 screen it's navigation. There is no clear cut answer anywhere I've looked on the Internet if I have it or not. Sending FordIVteam my VIN to see if I do or not.

Hey ArcherMike,

After looking up the VIN, I see that your vehicle did not come equipped with built in navigation. However, you can stream directions through a Bluetooth connection:
