Richard Bunn, director of retail connectivity solutions at Ford Europe stated that ”SecuriAlert builds on Ford’s growing connectivity ecosystem to empower owners with the knowledge that if something happens with their vehicle when they aren’t driving it, they will be the first to know”.
The app also makes use of the car's existing sensors to detect if an attempt is being made to enter the vehicle. Furthermore, it allows the driver to be fully equipped in fighting back against car theft, which has become an issue in the United Kingdom over the past few years.
