Just came back after 5 years, need help

[Gdyup50]

Hi guys, just picked up a 2016 GT and it has the reverse parking aid. I have gone into driver aids and unchecked the box for it, but it still comes on every time and I have to click it off. Is there something other than unchecking it in driver settings that I'm supposed to do to get it to stay off?
Thanks for any help

It's on all the time to stop you from crashing into something. Not sure why you'd want to disable it.

I only care about turning it off when I'm using my hitch-mounted bike rack. Loaded or empty, the warning buzzer will blast when I put it in reverse when I have the bike rack. I've only been able to turn it off for each "driving session." Like some of the other settings, it seems to reset each time I turn off the motor.

Because I have a camera for that, and I'm not driving an 18 wheeler...and, there's an option to turn it off that doesn't seem to work

My GT with the analogue gauges has the same issue. After some research, it seems like the IPC firmware has to be updated by the dealership.

I don't believe the files are available to the public to be done thru Forscan. Other Ford models like the Bronco or F-Series have the same issue.

Beeper warning > Camera

The beep warning has saved my bumper cover a few times while being a little quick backing out of the garage.

There are a number of threads on different forums regarding this. Seems like you are stuck with it.
