It sucks to feel violated in your home like that. Cities are getting out of hand for sure. I live in Atlanta and it feel like the wild west these days

Of course we have the usual roaming coyotes, javelinas, bob cats, mountain lions, and black bears every couple of years.
Maybe, if we're lucky, the bears and mountain lions will meet up with those roaming bands of petty thieves one night!

Yes. You have to push lock and then remote start twice for it to activate. Locking the doors is mandatory.
Thank you for teaching me how to use the remote start. I was double-tapping the button (without the lock part) with no success and didn't know why. Haha

Tripped me up in the beginning as well.

Know about the Window trick? Tap and then hold unlock to roll down all 4 windows at once.

Panic horn may have worked too. That's a real rat salad, I'm sorry that happened.

No idea why you didn't open the door, she probably wanted to spread the word of gospel, and bless you and your family...:unsure:🤪

I was startled awake at 230am last night to a drugged out lady ringing my doorbell and then immediately running and hiding behind my vehicles, waiting for me to open the door.

I instantly pulled up my exterior security cameras and my dash cam to see what was going on. From the dashcam I could clearly see the person hiding behind the vehicle, and I decided the best course of action was to remote start the Bronco and turn on Zone Lighting.

This scared the person off and last I saw, they headed down the road to do the same thing to a neighbor.

I alerted the police and they did not care.

Sorry, no dashcam footage. It shows my address clear as day so not the best thing to put on the internet. Just an FYI of how useful tech can be!
Do you know if we can turn on zone lighting with some key fob combination?

Would be helpful during early dark winter evenings like tonight

Had a similar incident a few years ago when I was living in Atlanta in what was considered a transitional area at the time. I informed them I was calling the cops because I could see their buddies hiding in the bushes. Also let them know my shotgun was waiting for them. They still just went a few doors down and kicked in the door. Took Atlanta PD an hour to get out despite my call and the call from the people getting the door kicked in. Good call on your part, Herooffails.
