Etienne Bégin Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Do you find the key (remote) too sensitive ? The panic button gets pressed all the time when I leave the remote in my pockets. My previous car remote had the key sunked in, and you really had to press deep with a thumb nail to activate panic mode. Really this is a first-world problem... but when I do work around the house it's annoying ! Etienne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingNut Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I have set it off a few times along with having the hatch lift. But I usually don't keep it in my pant's pocket. I'll keep it in my coat/sweater pocket or leave it near the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougS Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I've set off the horn in my garage several times with the fob in my pocket, even once in a parking lot just getting into my Edge. As soon as I sat down in the seat, the horn started honking! I assume the other keys on my ring get "tangled" around the fob while in my pocket, causing the button to be pushed. I had a 2013 F-150 before this Edge, and I think I have already set off the horn more times in the 4 months I have had the Edge, than the 2-1/2 years I had the F-150.

HappyHourSport Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 I have had the rear gate lifted a few times when I return to the car. Took awhile to figure out it was the remote in my pocket. Haven't set off the horn, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooley Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I decided that before my neighbors lynched me constantly setting off the emergency button while bending over or working in the house and garage to go inside the remote and cut the small silicone rubber nipple tip shorter and have had no more problems.

Guest Dave C Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 This happens to me all the time. It is very annoying, probably more so to my neighbors than me though. If anyone has a solution that they know works for sure, I'd like to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
