I just traded in my '23 2.0 and picked up my hybrid. Went to use the navigation and it's gone. Says to install the app. What?

'24 XLT, traded in a '23 Lariat. Switched at the last minute to save a couple of bucks 'cause of the divorce. Surviving OK but I'm missing a bunch of little things. ThanksWhat model do you have? Navigation on the 23s required lariat with lux package.
Updating navigation maps can be ridiculously expensive, and they quickly become outdated. Ford, for instance, charges $150 to update the maps in my kids 2011 Fusion Hybrid, but even after paying that, the maps would still be five years out of date. Using your phone with Apple CarPlay is a much better option, even if it requires plugging in with a USB cable.'24 XLT, traded in a '23 Lariat.

You don't get Navigation on an XLT. Use your phone or buy a Garmin....'24 XLT, traded in a '23 Lariat. Switched at the last minute to save a couple of bucks 'cause of the divorce. Surviving OK but I'm missing a bunch of little things. Thanks
You are so right. Garmin, atlas or maps.Navigation and traffic are add-ons to the SiriusMX subscription. Only available in the 2024 Hybrid on the Lariat.
Noting the comments on Ford updates.
I am still evaluating and in the trial subscription phase. I have a lifetime update package for the Garmin that I took out of the trade-in. Will probably drop the SXM Navigation and Traffic and just use phone and Garmin. FYI all you phone only types, there are places you cannot get cell coverage, especially in the mountains and out west. There, a Garmin always works.
On my '24 Lariat, no phone is needed for navigation, and no subscription to Sirius/XM.Navigation and traffic are add-ons to the SiriusMX subscription. Only available in the 2024 Hybrid on the Lariat.
