Post Crash Alert Function
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The post crash alert is a function controlled by the BCM. If the RCM determines an impact of enough severity has occurred (the air bags may or may not be deployed), the post crash alert function activates.
The post crash alert function:
- sounds the horn.
- turns on the interior lights.
- unlocks the doors.
- turns off the wipers, if on.
The post crash alert function can be turned off by:
- pressing the hazard flasher lamp switch (which may need to be pressed twice).
- pressing the RKE transmitter unlock button.
- pressing the RKE transmitter panic button.
