Default 4 small lights in overhead console?
My dad just got a 2015 Lariat and we have been trying to figure out what the four small light looking things are on the overhead console. I think they're lights but can seem to get them to light up for anything.

Not lights...They're sensors

If your windows are down or sunroof is open and the doors are locked, they detect someone reaching in and set off the alarm.

Really? So movement of any passenger or pet left in the truck with the doors locked is potentially going to set off the alarm!?

I believe you can go into "vehicle settings" and change to perimeter only on the alarm or possibly a setting called "all"..

Thanks, I sure hope there's a setting to control this.

Just curious how your dog reacted to the alarm?
