I hate fob panic buttons. They're always going off when I bend over when other keys in my pocket hit them. So I usually crack them open and disable them. Just did so on the Mach-E fob.
First take the top of the fob off (press the release button and pull).
Then pry the cover with the buttons off with a tiny screwdriver. It just pops off.
Then maneuver the panic button out of it's slot. Just tilt it a little and it slides out with slight pressure.
Then use a file to file down flat the center area of the red ledge. That's what pushes down on the internal button of the fob. Doesn't need to look good since it's the underside.
Then just reverse the steps to put it back together. Everything snaps back in place.
