The root cause of this concern may be an incorrect shock sensor sensitivity adjustment on the VSS module. Perform the shock sensor sensitivity adjustment procedure outlined in the vehicle security/remote start installation guide located on the PTS website. The shock sensor requires adjustment during the installation of a vehicle security/remote start system. The shock sensor sensitivity adjustment procedure should be performed following the installation instructions.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10153951-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10153951-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10153951","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null},{"id":"labels-manuals","name":"Labels and manuals","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"ECOSPORT","year_from":2018,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_ford_ecosport","2019_ford_ecosport"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"ESCAPE","year_from":2018,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_ford_escape","2019_ford_escape"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"TRANSIT","year_from":2018,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_ford_transit","2019_ford_transit"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
