Has anyone experienced the A/C turning off on it own? On a 40 minute drive and temp set at 70, the A/C turned off all by itself. The only thing that brought it back was turning everything off (Radio, HVAC and Seats), letting it sit for a minute and then turning the AC back on. So weird.

Anyone else have this?

Nope, no issues with A/C at all. Maybe, some electronics got bad? Wires etc

Its back at the dealer, I guess 37 days wasn't enough. I guess they've seen this before with different software revisions. The Seat TSB updated the set climate module, maybe now there's an issue. Sync is Microsoft after all, it must just need a Patch! LOL

If you have Sync-3 the development was done in-house.

2015 is a Sync 2.

That being said, the loaner has Sync 3 and it says "Sync-Powered by Microsoft".

Looks like MS is still in there, just not the OS.

"Sync 3 is built around the QNX operating system owned by BlackBerry, the most-used operating system for car infotainment. This replaces Microsoft Auto, a variant on Windows, that was used in Sync 1 and 2. (There are still other pieces of Microsoft software in Fords, but not as the OS behind Sync.)"
