Post Crash Alert Function
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 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.
