Adrian_L Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 After being stuck in traffic for 45 minutes this morning, it dawned on me that it might be a good idea to have traffic notifications on my NAV (I don't have data on my phone) so I can get re-routed around congestion. I phoned Sirius this afternoon and was told "Sorry Ford don't have traffic anymore". I couldn't believe it! Is this just in Canada or does it apply to all of North America?

AZgman Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 I have traffic on my '16 C-Max here in AZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian_L Posted January 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Thanks, So I phoned them back a couple of hours later and the previous clerk gave me completely wrong information. If you have Sirius and Nav you can have traffic. I was hoping just to sign up for traffic ($5/month) but apparently I need to get the Sirus radio package for $16/month PLUS the $5 for traffic. I'll think about it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raadsel Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) I thought all Fords with nav came with 5 free years Sirius Traffic and Weather? Unless that's not valid in Canada (different terms) or used vehicles aren't covered. I believe the 5 years started with the 2015 model. Before that, it appears that you only got 6 months, the same as the Sirius All Access trial. Edited January 25, 2017 by raadsel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZgman Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Well, Sirius (for music) is worth $0/mo to me. They will give you a 6 month trial for $30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjam Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Hi. You can really negotiate with Sirius. Tell them you want to cancell. They will pass you to a retention specialist. I now pay $25 for five months. Tell them what you think the service is worth. Takes less than five minutes. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNY Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Mine had the traffic for 6 months when I got the car used, it was pretty good. since we do a lot of traveling. tells you accidents, construction, etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
