Ford Introduces Theft-Proof Keyless Fobs

Simple but effective solution to help protect your vehicle

Ford has introduced a sleep mode on new Fiesta and Focus key fobs to protect against keyless entry theft from hackers.

The new tech for Fords fitted with keyless entry uses a motion sensor within the key fob. The sleep mode is triggered if it hasn’t been moved for 40 seconds – so won’t respond to signals from hackers equipped with ‘relay boxes’ which can now easily be bought online.

Criminals illegally use the relay boxes to extend the signal from key fobs in homes, unlocking and starting vehicles parked outside.

Owners of nearly new latest-model Fiesta and Focus can now buy replacement key fobs equipped with the new sleep mode.

The cost including the fob and the labour required to programme*:

£179.99 incl for Fiesta with keyless entry/keyless start built from 2017 and Focus built from 2018
£199.99 incl for Fiesta ST built from 2017

SPREAD THE COST OVER 3 EQUAL MONTHLY PAYMENTS WITH 0% PAYMENT PLAN.
