Yeah, it sounds like a horn and, after a bit, incorporates cursing.

It works on my 2010 just as the engineer stated

I tried it with my '10 and got no warning. Would've been nice if it did something to compensate for the idiotic feeling I had driving that far with my signal on...

That was a weird feeling... Luckily I was on a back road with nobody around.

If it's not working for us, it makes you wonder how it works for the others. I say show me some video!

It works on mine, I tried it a few years ago late at night on a back road. It gave a warning chime like the door open chime, and displayed something in the message center like "left turn signal on" or something.

The little icon for traction control is actually a 2010 rear. Neat.

Maybe I didn't go far enough...

Hmm... maybe the computer tries to "intelligently" warn you - if you're going completely straight with the signal on too long, maybe you get a warning. But maybe slight turns / veering in any direction / actually changing lanes / etc, may reset the timer because it thinks you legitimately used the turn signal..

Yes, I'm very familiar with this turn-signal-on warning. In fact, I am a volunteer operator for this type of warning and help people in need who don't have electronic warnings.

Yep, tried it out this weekend... Only worked though when the lights were on... But then it also worked in "D" with the automatic...

Kinda cool....

The trunk release is also the side of the stang as well!

I really like the way they've taken the MyColor gauge feature to new heights, with the multiple customizable "zones" where you can change color. Plus the new gauges are just better. Easier to read and look great.

Only downside is Ford seems to continue the idea of having the hi-beam and cruise-control icons at full brightness all the time, despite having the dimmer turned down for the rest of the dash. Really annoying when yer driving at night and you have this glaring blue light piercing into your eyesight.

When you are getting out of the car and you have locked the doors, the taillights flash when you shut the door. If the trunk is open, they don't flash until you close the trunk lid (and only then if the doors are locked).

I believe it's 10 miles or less.
