Motion Sensors (still) ?

[Don_23805]

Is there a secret to having the Motion Sensors Off setting stay permanent? Got a new dog and she sets them off. I already have foam tape over 3 sensor windows by the mirror. I recall this complaint from a year ago. Hasn't Ford fixed this, or are they still just fooling with on-screen games?

I think there's only one sensor window...

Leave car running. Turn off 30 minute timer in settings. Lock door with keypad, 7/8 9/0.

Has ford fixed anything??? The list of things being ignored seems way longer than things they’ve fixed. But hey, we got Soduku.

1. Frunk Release
2. Motion sensors
3. Light switch reverting to on

All problems since day one. I’m sure there’s plenty more too. This is just what I can come up with in 10 seconds.

Nope, leave the car on in a "pet mode" that they will hopefully officially give us one day.

Sensor windows: I had found the 2 rearward facing ones, and someone pointed out a 3rd that faces the windshield. I have foam tape over all three, but the dog still tripped it.

OK, found the 30 min timer and turned that off. Locked the door (forgot that buttons must be pushed simultaneously). Came back an hour later to find headlights still on full. I already get Diminished Mileage warnings when the dog turns on the flashers. Imagine what this will do. Doesn't look like a solution. Come on Ford, stop playing with Tetris and fix some Real problems!

You forgot to leave the car running...

No, car was "running" (ON). It double-beeped when I closed the door.

Then headlights won't impact battery.

I covered two, I think. Not sure of the third? Can you share a picture?
