I took my dog on errands today since it was only 40 degrees out. After turning off the car, I answered the Mach E prompt, "Alarm System Turn off motion sensors?" as YES . The alarm went off while I was in the grocery store anyway! Poor dog. What am I doing wrong?

There is a software bug that prevent the sensors from disabling unless you have 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.8 updates installed. If you don't have all those, you may need to get your software updated at a dealer to fix the issue.

I just leave my car on in the "makeshift dog mode" tutorial that I wrote so that the motion sensor is a non-issue.

Can post a link if you need it. I'm still waiting on those other updates so my motion sensor on/off will work correctly. Hopefully someday for gives us a true pet mode.

Je laisse ma Mach E en marche et je vais barrer la porte à l'extérieur en touchant 7-8 et 9-0 en même temps et j'entends les portes barrer. Je reviens mon chien fait dodo en écoutant la radio et confortable.

Update: I sent a message to Ford on this forum and they are looking into it. They asked how long this has been going on and I could only tell them the first time I tried taking my dog was last week.
