"Service Tire Mobility Kit" message

[mwr]

My 2015 FFH has 79,100 miles on it and recently began displaying a "Service Tire Mobility Kit" message every time I turn it on. I'm not concerned because I replaced my Tire Mobility Kit with a spare long ago. Of course I kept the kit. Does anyone know what that message means?

You replaced the kit with a spare but didn't go into the screens and reset the timer for kit replacement.

The goop in the mobility kit has an expiry date, so it's telling you that it has likely expired.

Ah yes, thanks. Now, how do I stop that message from appearing?

Didn't know there was such a thing.

Thanks! I'll check that out later today. I do note though that I bought my car new 5 1/2 years before the message appeared.

I checked and don't see a "tire mobility kit" setting. I've attached screen shots of what I see. Can anyone with a 2015 FFH see if theirs has a "tire mobility kit" setting.

In the left driver screen, not the center screen.

Yep, there is was. It has been so long since I accessed those left-side options that I had really forgotten they were there. Now I have a few others to check (with the manual) to see what they do.

No problem ? I use the left menu for resetting trip mileage, but not for anything else for a long time.

Thank you my Fusion has recently flashed this warning. Glad to know it is not a repair that needs immediate resolution

You helped me with this topic

Where do I locate the Tire Mobility Kit canister? We have a 2018 Fusion Hybrid.  Thank you.

it's in a foam assembly setup under the trunk floor panel.  on my prior FFH cars I used a compact spare and just put all the mobility stuff in the garage.  My 20 prohibits usage because of changes in the HVB cover screw locations and the well itself.
