Hey there, personally I think you've got a defective model of the system, I've had mine for 1.5 months now at 3100 miles, and the one time MyFord froze was in the dealership parking lot and it took 5 mins to reboot. As far as I know, it's up to date as of 1/18/2012.

I love our Focus and it sucks you're having trouble with yours cause otherwise it's a great car. Hopefully the new MFT will solve it or the dealer will put in a new system.

@Jackass0823 Duh, I drive the Fusion. It's the only car, lol
-
@giannial1985 So what do you drive then?
-
@Jackass0823 Uh, no, my mother bought it and it's registered in her name.
-
@giannial1985 If you use the fusion the most then it is basically yours?
-
@Jackass0823 The Escort used to be my mom's car lol. The Fusion I drive is really hers too, but I use it the most. The Escort shared the frame and everything else with the Mazda Protege, except the engine. Just like the current Fusion shares almost everything with the Mazda6.
okay, so i understand your frustration...but I also own a 2012 ford focus..my system randomly wont turn on or it would freeze and do whatever...when it freezes like that your supposed to turn the car off and it will go off shortly after that...that always works with mine.

@stickysituationable That isn't how the car is supposed to work...it's just supposed to reboot by itself as you drive along like it used to do. No other system on the market does this, I'm disgusted that the system was even green-lighted with THAT as a requirement much less all this. Between this and the transmission, this car is a massive disappointment...this is coming from somebody whose favorite car company is Ford.

So aside from the my ford touch problems, would you say that it is a good drivers car, or if someone were to buy a focus without the my ford touch screen, would you recommend it?

@Uuuuuu15 Yes, this is a driver's car. The Mazda3 might be a hair sharper, but this car really does have the best chassis in the class...handles cornering very well. It rides with the comfort of a bigger car, the suspension doesn't crash over bumps, and it inspires a lot of confidence in the corners. Good, accurate steering and a smooth engine that's willing to rev make this a great driver's car.
