The Fiesta ST comes with the SecuriLock Passive Anti-Theft system and Perimeter Alarm as standard equipment.
What is the SecuriLock Passive Anti-Theft system (PATS)?
When the vehicle is started, the on-board computer sends out an RF signal which is picked up by the transponder in the key. The transponder then returns a unique RF signal to the vehicle's computer, giving it confirmation to start and continue to run. This all happens in less than a second. If the on-board computer does not receive the correct identification code certain components, such as the fuel pump and on some the starter, will remain disabled. The keys have a radio frequency transponder embedded in the plastic Head with a unique electronic identification code.
What is the Perimeter alarm?
Guards the vehicle's doors, hood and trunk/lift gate. When an unauthorized entry occurs, the system triggers and will:– Flash the head lamps, parking lamps and theft-indicator lamp on the instrument panel. Sound the horn. Note: It will not be triggered by breaking glass or entry into the vehicle through a window. The perimeter anti-theft alarm system is designed to work with the factory-installed Remote Keyless Entry System.SecuriLock? passive anti-theft ignition system.
