Note: Including to the extent that any law pertaining to Event
Data Recorders applies to SYNC® or its features, please note the
following: Once 911 Assist (if equipped) is enabled (set ON), 911
Assist may, through any paired and connected cell phone, disclose
to emergency services that the vehicle has been in a crash involving
the deployment of an airbag or, in certain vehicles, the activation of
the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911 Assist
may also be capable of being used to electronically or verbally
provide to 911 operators the vehicle location (such as latitude and
longitude), and/or other details about the vehicle or crash or
personal information about the occupants to assist 911 operators
to provide the most appropriate emergency services. If you do not
want to disclose this information, do not activate the 911 Assist
feature. See your SYNC® chapter for more information.
Additionally, when you connect to Traffic, Directions and Information
(if equipped, U.S. only), the service uses GPS technology and
advanced vehicle sensors to collect the vehicle’s current location,
travel direction, and speed (“vehicle travel information”), only to
help provide you with the directions, traffic reports, or business
searches that you request. If you do not want Ford or its vendors to
receive this information, do not activate the service. Ford Motor
Company and the vendors it uses to provide you with this
information do not store your vehicle travel information. For more
information, see Traffic, Directions and Information, Terms and
Conditions. See your SYNC® chapter for more information.
