Why am I losing SecuriAlert feature?

I never had it on my vehicle so not a biggie here. Though I do know they are working on a much better system. Will see what they do with that and when they announce it.

I just hope it has a better name, even if it’s no difference in execution. ??

You still get notifications? The last push notification I received was about 8 months ago.

Same, except for the walk away lock, but all the other ones, I don't get push for, they just end up coming through in messages when I open the app.

Been using this feature since January of 2022.
I typically get a notification within 5 seconds, of something being opened……

Maybe it is because the dealers have been complaining customers are calling in saying they are pissed because they can see from SecuriAlert that their car has just been sitting in the back lot for weeks and has not even been opened once.

Come to think of it, the last time I saw the notification was when my South Sacramento dealer finally took my car off the back lot after four-and-a-half weeks.

I never used it at home, but often turned the feature on while in town. Offered peace of mind while having diner or sitting at a movie. I liked the feature and used it occasionally.

This reminds me of the forum users who start one thread about selling their Mach-E cause they hate it and everyone is like “who are you?”

The only reason why they are doing away with it is because it gave us the time when any vendor mainly Ford started to work on our car in a sense.. And people will pay to know that information.

Vendors may not want that because now they have knowledge of how many hours worked.

Everytime any part of my Mach E was opened by me a Securialert event was notified on my messages in the Ford App peaking at 208 notifications, this was one of my plentiful issues I have highlighted at the Ford Dealership, the Securialert is the only issue that has been addressed after frequent visits totalling 4 months to the Dealership, how, do I hear you ask, quite simple really, Ford have blocked my App ingenious or what.

Namely we can remove a free tool and replace it with a chargeable subscription called “Ford Secure“…
