Annoying double honk when exiting car petition.

How about just getting they fob from your wife. Or putting the second fob for the xsport in your pocket on the way out the door. But I do see your point.

Yup that would be ideal...however being human that does not always happen because I hate carrying keys so I don't even carry a fob for the exsport.
 
Had a Taurus rental last year before I was familiar with the "keyless ignition". I opened the trunk with the FOB, shut the trunk, got in, started the engine, and the "Trunk Ajar" notice would be on. After the 3rd time I figured something strange was going on. So I decided to check the trunk and the 2nd key fob was in with the spare tire. LMAO

Lol!
It is all pretty silly, really. 
Back when the car was new, I thought my wife was slamming the door too hard and that was causing the double honk. Haha!
I wouldn't tell her any differently, lol...
 
Guys, this is simple. Im not a big fan of the feature either but its a safety thing....
For those who leave their car running while getting fuel, running in to get beer, etc..... just shut off the car, get out (taking your key fob with you) and use your remote start to start it back up. The car runs keeping it nice and warm inside for you and or the family still inside. That way you dont have to worry about someone stealing your car while leaving it running
 
My 2013 does this after i shut my car off when my wife gets out of the pass side and closes the door before i open mine. Lol
 
:hitit2:

Someone find out how to stop it if modifying behavior is an unsatisfactory solution.  Otherwise let it go and complaint to Ford.
 
Yeah, I just traded into this issue.

Owners manual indicates you can disable by not exceeding 3ft and entering your keypad code before walking away.
 
From my understanding the 13 SHO will sound the double honk sound only if someone exits the vehicle before the driver does while shutting off the vehicle,on 14+ SHO the double honk will sound only if walking away from the vehicle while its running with key fob in pocket.Z
