    My 2013 Ford Territory is currently in a Ford workshop as the command centre has failed. Ford has informed me it doesn’t make the parts anymore and they have sourced me one from a wrecker over east. My worry is that it might not work, and what happens if it breaks after a couple of months? My car is nine years old and it sounds like it could be obsolete if the parts aren’t available.

    These units are well known for giving trouble including buttons not working right through to complete failure of the screen and unit. There are, however, companies that specialise in repairing these units and can replace the problem components to bring the unit back to life.

    But even if you go with a second-hand unit from a wrecking yard, it should have been tested to ensure it’s working properly before it’s shipped to you. And if it doesn’t work, a reputable parts recycler will offer to replace it.

    The problem you face of course, is what happens when the world’s supply of second-hand Territory commands centres dries up. Again, it shouldn’t be a problem as there are aftermarket units designed specifically to fit the Territory’s dashboard that are better quality, deliver better sound and often include features your car may not have such as Bluetooth and mobile-phone mirroring.
