My center display has started doing things on its own.
I turn it off during early morning drive to work, and it turns itself back on.
Or I can be on the audio screen, and it will switch to Navigation.

Is this something I should talk to the dealer about, or is it a known glitch in Sync?

My nav yesterday showed me off-road when I was traveling up the interstate. After I restarted truck at my next stop it recognized I was on pavement again.

IIRC others have had this happen and it was the system doing updates which makes the screen go wonky.

Hopefully that is what it is, but that's alot of updates.
If it does it again you could try disconnecting the battery, wait a couple minutes then reconnect it. Sometimes that resets everything.

Soft Reset for Synch 3 should be the starting point....far simpler than the procedure for my UConnect 8.4 system in my Chrysler. Soft Resets have worked for me.
