iPhone 7 Bluetooth connectivity with 2010 Ford SYNC malfunctions

My iPhone 7 Plus is not pairing with my 2010 Ford Fusion Sync. Had zero problems with the iPhone 6 connecting to the Bluetooth/Sync. The bluetooth isn't even recognized in my car or picking up on the phone. Will a patch be put out to correct this? Currently, it's the main issue I'm having. Love everything else about the phone.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 10.3.2

It was a complete fail. Ford provides a link that allows us to look at which phones are compatible with the Sync and Sync MyFord. The iPhone 7/7Plus is not listed.


The ones below do. It doesn't even read my bluetooth as available in the car. Is this a Ford issue or a patch that Apple can provide?
