SYNC APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES (IF EQUIPPED)
Note:In order for the following features to work, your cellular phone
must be compatible with SYNC. To check your phone’s compatibility, visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com, www.SYNCMyRide.ca or www.syncmaroute.ca.
•SYNC Services (if equipped, United States only): Provides access to

•911 Assist: Can alert 911 in the event of an emergency.
•Vehicle Health Report (if equipped, United States only): Provides a
diagnostic and maintenance report card of your vehicle.
911 Assist®
WARNING:Unless the 911 Assist setting is set on prior to a
crash, the system will not dial for help which could delay
response time, potentially increasing the risk of serious injury or death
after a crash.
WARNING:Do not wait for 911 Assist to make an emergency
call if you can do it yourself. Dial emergency services
immediately to avoid delayed response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a crash. If you do not hear 911
Assist within five seconds of the crash, the system or phone may be
damaged or non-functional.
WARNING:Always place your phone in a secure location in the
vehicle so it does not become a projectile or get damaged in a
crash. Failure to do so may cause serious injury to someone or damage
the phone which could prevent 911 Assist from working properly.
Note:SYNC 911 Assist feature must be set on prior to the incident.
Note:Before setting this feature on, ensure that you read the 911 Assist
privacy notice later in this section for important information.
Note:If 911 Assist is turned on or off by any user, that setting applies
for all paired phones. If 911 Assist is turned off, a voice message plays
and/or a display message/icon comes on when the vehicle is started after
a previously paired phone connects.

system, (i.e., brake lining wear). Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance and regularly inspect your vehicle may result in vehicle
damage and serious injury.

Health Report (inside your vehicle). Return to your account at
