How do I lock and unlock my car remotely with the FordPass app?
You can unlock or lock your vehicle on the main command screen in FordPass® using the instructions below.
Important:
- FordPass Remote Commands are not substitutes for having your key fob on hand. You should not leave your key fob at home or inside your vehicle.
- Your vehicle still requires the presence of a key to put it in drive (D).
- FordPass Guides do not have access to your remote commands. They are unable to unlock, lock, or control your vehicle.
Remote lock/unlock is not a standard feature for all vehicles. The following conditions must be met:
- Your vehicle must be added to FordPass.
- Your vehicle must be equipped with a modem.
- Your vehicle's modem must be activated.
