themacguy Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 Just bought a 2013 C-Max SE. I know there's an ignition immobilizer (if I remember the phrase correctly), but I'd like to add a perimeter alarm so, if someone breaks a window or manages to jimmy open the doors, hood or rear liftgate, an alarm will sound. Any recommendations? Thanks,Barry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdefny Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 I am not sure about glass detection or motion, but the doors will sound the perimeter alarm that comes with the car. I have regretted every third party alarm that i ever bought, so this is enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themacguy Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) Isn't that feature only part of the SEL model, not the SE? If I'm wrong, that's great but how would I test it? Maybe get into the car, use the fob to lock it and then open the door?edit: Nope, that didn't do it.

Tdefny Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 I thought they all had it. I haven't tried it yet, but I figured that I could test it by leaving the window open with the car locked and opening the handle from the inside without the fob in my pocket.
