WARNING: 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, make sure 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 information on airbag deployment, see the Supplementary
Restraints System chapter.
• For information on the fuel pump shut-off, see the Roadside
Emergencies chapter.
