    Get rid of the SecuriCode keypad

    in Ford: Wish List

    Posted

    Another great reason to have it...never another key locked in your car!

     

    Other uses include activities where you could lose your keys or just plain don't want them with you (swimming, boating, biking, hiking, etc.), just lock them in the car and you don't have to worry about it. Hands full and can't get in your pocket to get the keys? Just punch the buttons with a free finger!

     

    Though I like the looks of the new style keypad better, I think the old style is easier to use.

     

    Oh yeah...hold down 7/8 & 9/0 at the same time, it will lock all the doors (the new style you have to hold for 3 seconds). When unlocking the doors, after entering your combination, 3/4 will unlock the other doors, 5/6 will pop the trunk (if equipped).

    would that work for the rear of a TaurusX?

    How long does it take to get scheduled

    in Mustang Forum

    Posted

    Vehicle scheduling is totally dependent on a Dealer's allocation for each vehicle line regardless of whether the order is for a "Retail" or "Stock" vehicle. In the past there have been special programs (Escape Hybrid, Fusion Hybrid) to schedule Retail orders on an expedited basis regardless of allocation but Ford has never had such a program for Mustangs. I've been very vocal in my conversations with Ford about the benefits of having expedited retail order scheduling, regardless of a Dealer's allocation, but have been told that Ford will not even consider it because it would upset production plans.

     

    FYI... Ford does a new allocation plan with Dealers on a monthly basis at the beginning of each month. It's basically a "Turn and Earn" system with Dealers earning more allocation based on their sales history. Basically, based on the Dealer's sales history, Ford offers allocation for the upcoming scheduling month. If no allocation is offered for a vehicle line, a Dealer can request allocation to fill/schedule retail orders. Ford Zone Managers will usually try to work with Dealers to help them get allocation for retail orders.

     

    Hope that this brief reply helps you.

    thanks for the info, this helps make sense of my current situation.
