Ford has announced that it will be bringing Siri Eyes-Free support to more than five million of its SYNC-equipped vehicles via a software update. The new update will be available to all vehicles equipped with the second-generation of the auto maker’s SYNC technology, dubbed “MyFord Touch” in North America, from model years 2011 to 2016, and will allow users to access Siri functions directly on their connected iPhone through the in-car control systems; a long-press of the voice recognition button on the steering wheel will engage Siri and users will then be able to issue standard Siri voice commands to place phone calls, look up phone numbers, get directions, set reminders, inquire about the weather, check and dictate text messages, and select and play music. Users will be able to download the update via Ford’s website at http://owner.ford.com.
