Default Clock doesn't keep correct time

Everyday when I start my car the time is 3-5 minutes behind. I reset it each time and I'm still having the same problem. I have a 2013 and it's the original battery if that might have anything to do with. I just tested the voltage and that's good. Thoughts?

My clock loses a minute or two over the course of a few weeks but never overnight. That's excessive. Have you ever left it and see if it falls back 3-5 hours every night?

I had the same issue and had the dealer swap out the clock during my 20K service. Theyou also swapped my steering wheel because the leather was riding over the F-Sport logo at the bottom of the wheel.

The clock should keep perfect time and never get off even one minute between Daylight Savings Time dates. The dealer should replace the clock for you.

So does mine. Loses about 1 minute per 2-3 weeks. I consider that acceptable and have never complained about it to the dealer. My car is a 2013 and still on the original battery after 4 years.

my clock won't correct for DST or when set to GPS. I had to turn both off to get to manual settings. I could then set it correctly. Anyone have that problem?

My clock is too slow. It serves a better purpose as my magnetic phone mount attachment. My phone's clock is usually correct....

We don’t have daylight saving time in Arizona. We still have enough daylight.
