911 Assist™ (If Equipped)
WARNING:Unless the 911 Assist™ setting is set on prior to a
crash, the system will not dial for help which could delay response
time, potentially increasing the risk of serious injury or death after a crash.
WARNING:Do not wait for 911 Assist™ to make an emergency call
if you can do it yourself. Dial emergency services immediately to
avoid delayed response time which could increase the risk of serious injury
or death after a crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist™ within five seconds
of the crash, the system or phone may be damaged or non-functional.
WARNING:Always place your phone in a secure location in the
vehicle so it does not becoming a projectile or get damaged in a
collision. Failure to do so may cause serious injury to someone or damage
the phone which could prevent 911 Assist™ from working properly.
Note:SYNC911 Assist™ feature must be set on prior to the incident.
Note:Before setting this feature on, ensure that you read the 911
Assist™ privacy notice later in this section for important information.
Note:If 911 Assist™ is turned on or off by any user, that setting applies
for all paired phones. If 911 Assist™ is turned off, a voice message plays
and/or a display message/icon comes on when the vehicle is started after
a previously paired phone connects.
Note:Every phone operates differently. While SYNC911 Assist™ works
with most cellular phones, some may have trouble using this feature.
If a crash deploys an airbag or activates the fuel pump shut-off, your
SYNC-equipped vehicle may be able to contact emergency services by
dialing 911 through a paired and connected Bluetooth-enabled phone.
For more information about 911 Assist™, visit www.SYNCMyRide.com or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
•For information on airbag deployment, refer to theSupplementary
Restraints Systemchapter.
•For information on the fuel pump shut-off, refer to theRoadside
Emergencieschapter.

911 Assist™ May Not Work If
•Your cellular phone or 911 Assist™ hardware was damaged in a crash.
•The vehicle’s battery or SYNC system has no power.
•The phone(s) paired and connected to the system was thrown from
the vehicle.
911 Assist™ Privacy Notice
Once 911 Assist™ is set on, it may disclose to emergency services that
the vehicle has been in a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or
activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911
Assist™ may also be capable of electronically or verbally disclosing to
911 operators the vehicle location, and/or other details about the vehicle
or crash to assist 911 operators to provide the most appropriate
emergency services. If you do not want to disclose this information, do
not turn the feature on.
Vehicle Health Report (If Equipped, U.S. Only)
WARNING:Always follow scheduled maintenance instructions,
regularly inspect your vehicle, and seek repair for any damage or
problem you suspect. Vehicle Health Report supplements, but cannot
replace, normal maintenance and vehicle inspection. Vehicle Health
Report only monitors certain systems that are electronically monitored
by the vehicle and will not monitor or report the status of any other
system, (i.e., brake lining wear). Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance and regularly inspect your vehicle may result in vehicle
damage and serious injury.
Note:Your Vehicle Health Report feature requires activation prior to use.
Visit www.SYNCMyRide.com to register. There is no fee or subscription
associated with Vehicle Health Report, but you must register to use this
feature.
Note:This feature may not function properly if you have enabled caller
ID blocking on your mobile phone. Before running a report, review
Vehicle Health Report Privacy Notice.
Note:In order to allow a break-in period for your vehicle, you may not
be able to create a Vehicle Health Report until your vehicle odometer has
