911 Assist®
(If Equipped) WARNINGS
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.

WARNINGS
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. Always place your phone in a
secure location in the vehicle so
it does not become 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:
The SYNC 911 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, either a voice message plays or a
display message/icon comes on (or
both) when the vehicle is started after
a previously paired phone connects.
Note: Every phone operates differently.
While SYNC 911 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,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
See Supplementary Restraints
System (page 42). Important
information regarding airbag
deployment is in this chapter.
See
Roadside Emergencies (page
238). Important information regarding
the fuel pump shut-off is in this
chapter.
Setting 911 Assist On
Press the Information button, Apps,
911 Assist, then On.
You can also access 911 Assist by:
• Pressing the Settings icon,
Settings, Phone, then 911 Assist
• Pressing the Settings icon, Help,
911 Assist
To make sure that 911 Assist works
properly:
• SYNC must be powered and
working properly at the time of the
incident and throughout feature
activation and use.
• The 911 Assist feature must be set
on prior to the incident.
• A Bluetooth-enabled and
compatible phone has to be paired
and connected to SYNC.

•
A connected Bluetooth-enabled
phone must have the ability to
make and maintain an outgoing
call at the time of the incident.
• A connected Bluetooth-enabled
phone must have adequate
network coverage, battery power
and signal strength.
• The vehicle must have battery
power and be located in the U.S.,
Canada or in a territory in which 911
is the emergency number.
In the Event of a Crash
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or
activate the fuel pump shut-off
(which would activate 911 Assist);
however, if 911 Assist is triggered,
SYNC tries to contact emergency
services. If a connected phone is
damaged or loses connection to
SYNC, SYNC searches for, and tries
to connect to, any available previously
paired phone and tries to make the
call to 911.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides a short window of
time (about 10 seconds) to cancel
the call. Failure to cancel the call
results in SYNC attempting to dial
911.
• SYNC says the following, or a
similar message: "SYNC will
attempt to call 911, to cancel the
call, press Cancel on your screen
or press and hold the phone button
on your steering wheel." If the call is not cancelled and a
successful call is made, a
pre-recorded message is played for
the 911 operator, then the occupant(s)
in the vehicle is able to talk with the
operator. Be prepared to provide your
name, phone number and location
immediately, because not all 911
systems are capable of receiving this
information electronically.
911 Assist May Not Work If
•
Your cellular phone or 911 Assist
hardware was damaged in a crash.
• The vehicle's battery or the 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 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.
