How do I add a destination with SYNC^®* Navigation?

Two resources to help you identify your vehicle's SYNC generation are the:

• SYNC and Navigation Updates page. Either:
  • Enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and select Check for update.

  • Log in with your Lincoln credentials, choose a vehicle from your garage, and select Check for updates.

    Note: Your SYNC generation will appear on the right-hand side of the page.

• SYNC Visual Reference Guide, which provides example images of SYNC generations that Lincoln has offered.
