Midway Ford Discusses Ford Sync vs. OnStar

sync vs onstar

Although we may be a little biased, we believe that transparency is important and getting the facts to our customers is paramount. Let's start by hashing out exactly how each system operates and what their intended usage is.


Ford Sync:
  • Uses Microsoft software to read information from your smartphone
  • 911 assistance
  • Turn-by-turn directions
  • Hands-free calling
  • Music Search
  • Vehicle Health Report
  • Personalized daily info
  • Business Search
  • Traffic Alerts
  • Audible Text Messages
OnStar
  • OnStar equipped vehicles have a built-in phone, which also comes with a monthly fee, depending on the package you buy.
  • Automatic Crash Response
  • Vehicle Diagnostics
  • Hands-free calling
  • Turn by Turn Navigation
  • Remote Door unlock

Cost: Ford Sync's Traffic and Directions Information is free for the first three years, then $60 a year. GM's OnStar requires you to buy the Directions and Connections package with OnStar at $10 for first year, but $28 per month after that.

Although the services are different, it appears pretty clear to us who offers more 'bang for your buck,' but we'd rather you be the judge. Come in today and check out how Ford Sync can get you CONNECTED!
