But when i come to report problems, i know have limited options on the ACp. Am i right in thinking that every time i come across a temp road closure or a speed limit has been changed, I either have to stop my vehicle, unplug the phone and report the problem to then plug it back in and then carry on my journey or am i missing something here?
Yes, if you want to send that level of detail report. CarPlay has limited report functionality

Where do you see the post number?
Oh. They are shown in tapatalk. Seems not on website view. This is #522
Anyway, link is posted for v19205 and will fix the ford sync waze speed issue. People should just see the discussion and install that.
Best to stop all this ford sync stuff and bring the thread back about Waze on CarPlay

While driving my primary vehicle with an aftermarket Pioneer head unit, my speed is detected accurately. What gives? Both my wife an I have updated all devices and still experiencing the issue.
The problem is an issue with Ford’s sync system - not a waze bug (it affects all CarPlay apps showing the speedometer). You’ll need to update your sync 3 to at least v3.0.19149 through ford owner site or download the files from elsewhere on the internet.

They have addressed the problem. They released a sync 3 update many months ago that you can install that fixes the issue. Read/search through this thread and you will see lots of discussion about and about the solution.
Get the update from the ford owner site.

Not really ford's problem. CarPlay is just a method of sending data from your apple phone to their screen. It's what the app does with that data that causes the problem.
Incorrect. Sync 3 was sending inaccurate speed values to the Apple CarPlay api. Waze and other apps use that data for the speedometer features.
It was corrected with sync 3 v3.0.19149 and v3.4 for my18.5+ year fords.
