My wife and I just bought a 2010 Ford Edge and traded in an 04 Murano (which came with an alarm at no charge)
I almost walked out when they told me I had to pay for the alarm in the finance office and not while negotiating the price
very very cheep of Ford to do this, it is very disappointing. Anyway here is what I saw. The sales man took a small plastic
coded bag out of a cabinet with a small plastic cap with metal contacts on it
that he installed under the edge of the dash near the drivers door (the receiver looks like the diagnostic port)
turned the key on then off and that was it now we are out an alarm. (thank you ford motor company)
You would think that buying a $37,000 car and adding the 100,000 mile extended warranty that would be free
