Can I turn off cloud data for Connected Navigation in my Ford vehicle?

You can turn off cloud data for your Connected Navigation (90-day trial)* and Connected Built-In Navigation (3 years of service)** in the SYNC 4A/SYNC 4 settings. Turning off your cloud data can affect certain functionalities. In some cases, your cellular data could also be affected if you choose to use a third-party navigation provider.

To limit cloud data use and continue to enjoy the full use of your onboard apps, you can:

  • Turn off your navigation services in each app.
  • Turn off traffic and personalization, as well as delete data, in apps.
