information may also be accessed
electronically by Ford Motor Company and
Ford authorized service facilities, and that
the diagnostic information may be used
for any purpose. See MyLincoln Touch
™
(page 313).
Event Data Recording
This vehicle is equipped with an event
data recorder. The main purpose of an
event data recorder is to record, in
certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an airbag deployment
or hitting a road obstacle; this data will
assist in understanding how a vehicle ’s
systems performed. The event data
recorder is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or less.
The event data recorder in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or the
brake pedal; and
• How fast the vehicle was traveling;
and
• Where the driver was positioning the
steering wheel.
This data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur. Note:
Event data recorder data is
recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data
is recorded by the event data recorder
under normal driving conditions and no
personal data or information (e.g., name,
gender, age, and crash location) is
recorded (see limitations regarding 911
Assist and Traffic, directions and
Information privacy below). However,
parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the event data recorder data
with the type of personally identifying
data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an event data
recorder, special equipment is required,
and access to the vehicle or the event
data recorder is needed. In addition to
the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have such
special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to the
vehicle or the event data recorder. Ford
Motor Company and Ford of Canada do
not access event data recorder
information without obtaining consent,
unless pursuant to court order or where
required by law enforcement, other
government authorities or other third
parties acting with lawful authority. Other
parties may seek to access the
information independently of Ford Motor
Company and Ford of Canada.

driving efficiency. The more leaves and
vines that are displayed, the better your
fuel economy. Leaves and vines will
occasionally appear and disappear to

be impacted by your use of brakes,
accelerator and accessories, as well as
environmental conditions such as hills and
weather.
Flowers
Flowers appear on the efficiency leaves
screen in addition to the leaves and vines.
The flowers indicate long term driving
efficiency. The more flowers that are
displayed, the more efficiently you have
driven. Once earned, the flowers will
remain unless reset. The flowers can be
reset through the information display. See
