Google Officially Discloses Android Auto Fix For Ford Sync 3

The American multinational technology company, Google has officially responded to the FAQ on Ford Sync 3 users' inability to talk or hear when answering incoming calls.

Ford Sync 3 owners have been having difficulties with incoming calls in their cars when operating Andriod Auto on their head units and up to this point, very little official information was available in this regard.

Discussion motif on Google's forums shows that the problem is not experienced by few users but plenty of people are actually struggling with phone calls in their Ford cars. Many of them can’t hear the person at the other end of the line, while others claim not a single word they say can be heard by their contacts.
