DO not buy a ford!!

Do not buy a Ford without testing for double horn honk on new Ford vehicles! My 2016 as well as many other '15 and 16 Fords double honk the horn when you get out with the key fob if the engine is running or ACC is on. Every time I hook up to the trailer the horn honking upsets every one camping in the area. Ford says it can't be shut off, but people are selling equipment to do it. Police cars are also sold with out it.

no horn honk on ours

We have a 2015 F150 we bought new in Sept last year. I always leave it run as I use the back up camera,and we travel with a dog and when its hot I leave the truck running where I can see it. We ordered it with the factory tow package and factory elc brakes if that makes a differance

Disable Double Honk

You apparently can disable the double honk

There are lots of posts on this annoying deal and how to shut it off.
