Does your car have the 401A option?

It does have 401A.

It does have 401A.

Premium pkg on the EB is 201A - perimeter alarm is listed on the window sticker - don't even know what it is and don't really care. FWIW
The only thing that I got on the premium pkg that I really wanted was leather seats, the rest was just "stuff" that came with the pkg ........

I believe the perimeter alarm includes integration with the in cabin sensors. I'd contact the dealer where you purchased the car.

I was there yesterday. They checked it out and said it's working as built. I'll live with it.

My week old '26 GT Convertible is missing "Alarm System" from the list of topics under "Settings/Vehicle". Also, on my '24 GT, a prompt would appear on the instrument panel after shutting down the engine with yes/no buttons for turning the perimeter sensors on or off. That's not happening with the '26 either. Anyone out there seeing this on their '26?

Have you checked your alarm settings in the infotainment?

Several times

Post a picture of your menu settings. I want to compare to mine.

You aren't looking in the right setting my friend.

 

[Illini4]

Could you tell/show us what the right setting is?

 

[AZ_Ryan]

Its between on-board modem serial number and remote start.

 

[Illini4]

That's the problem - it's not there on the 2026, or at least some of them including mine. Is yours a 2026?

 

[AZ_Ryan]

I see. No mines a '24. So for 2026 perhaps Ford just programmed it to always be on then? Are you trying to shut it off?

If you had looked carefully at the pics I posted .... I have NO listing for:
"Alarm System" I pictured EVERYTHINg that shows on my Vehicle Setting screen except the very last listing "oil life"
