rmc523 Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 My issue is the side sensors, not cross traffic. I have to turn it off each time I start or it goes off. The car next to me is more than 3 feet away, and sometimes it happens when there is nothing next to me at all. I didn't realize it has side sensors.

fordtech1 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 False Alerts Note: If your vehicle has a factory equipped tow bar and it is towing a trailer, the sensors will detect the trailer and turn the Blind Spot Information and cross traffic alert systems off to avoid false alerts. For non-factory equipped tow bars, you may want to switch the Blind Spot Information System off manually. There may be certain instances when there is a false alert by either the Blind Spot Information or the cross traffic alert system that illuminates the alert indicator with no vehicle in the coverage zone. Some amount of false alerts are normal; they are temporary and self-correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
