Anyone have any experience with Ford's Perimeter Alarm? I saw it as an accessory, and realized it's part of my build. Does it work well?

What perimeter alarm? I think it's available with the mod top and slide out tailgate.

Probably better on the bronco than other fords since the horn is harder to disable like on my 2020 f250

I haven't really noticed it on my f150 besides the message that pops up on my dash when I turn off the truck. I can walk up to my truck and peak in and nothing happens.

it’s nothing like my aftermarket alarm in the jeep where I can adjust the sensors and can set the sensitivity on that when doors off, top down etc.

I think most of us would expect it to work like tesla's, warning people to step back....

I was thinking it would be like my corvette-when the top is off, it alarms if someone reaches inside.

That's the motion sensor inside the cabin taking over. I don't think the Bronco will have one a those. I test mine every time I get out, leave the wife inside, and forget to push that dang little button on the dash. :)

Both of my other Ford's have the perimeter alarm. Danged if I can tell you how it works though. I'm guessing if someone breaks a glass, hits the unlock button, and open the door it will raise hell. But, it is different than the motion sensor. The wife's Mustang has a motion sensor that is integrated into the overhead rearview mirror surround. But, my Ranger doesn't have the motion sensor.

Yeah it comes standard on the Broncos (Or is it linked to the mid package, I don't recall)

I even asked one of the Bronco reps about it when I went to one of the dealer events... Nobody seems to know anything about it.

Maybe now that folks are actually getting theirs will find out. I want an alarm but the last thing I want is for some third party going in there and hacking into my wires...not to mention the cost...daum alarms got expensive!

I'll revive this vs starting a new one (search actually worked this time). Anyone that has taken delivery, does the perimeter alarm do what it's name implies? How does it work?
