Because it's unnecessary. Somehow I've been driving for over four decades without a message like that and I'm still around to drive another day.

Ok I donāt disagree but if you are not wanting to change drive modes the message really isnāt in the way of anything as it goes away on its own by the time you back out of your garage or anytime you move a short distance.
Iāll say as well, itās not Fords fault itās there.

got 4 for $13 or so - I prefer the flatter, low-profile. They sit about a 1/4" higher than I'd like though, but doesn't really matter.

So, If you want to get "almost free" seatbelt extenders (will do the same thing as a defeat)
Here is the part from FORD.

Ok, I have a 2023 XLT. My truck doesn't "Chime". And the seatbelt screen goes away as soon as I buckle up. Not seeing or having the issues you guys are.
I see it on my Lariat every time I start the truck. If there's a way to disable in Forscan, I would have a reason to buy a Forscam.
Definitely not true on my 2023 Lariat. I just spent 10 hours over two days with four people in the truck and the screen appeared every time.

This video is a great find... for those who have an XL or XLT. I just checked my '23 Lariat and the numbers for 720-02-02 are nothing even close to what the video shows. So sad. I hate this useless screen and hope someone can figure out the Lariat code soon.

I just tried it on my '23 Lariat anyway in the off chance it could still work. (That's how much I hate this screen.) It didn't work. I got a checksum error, tried it anyway, and no dice. The first screen back was the dreaded seatbelt one!

Did you buckle the rear center one?
Prob not.
I have a 2023 XL - I tried buckling the 3 rear seats - the screen doesn't show up or goes away so quickly on its own, that I didn't notice. Previously it stayed on long enough that I'd want to hit 'ok' to see whatever screen I was after (usually EV coach, in town).
I then ordered the lower profile buckle "plugs" from China (AliExpress). Got rid of one of my complaints. Would've gone with the extenders and cut them down, if I knew they were $.02ea!

I agree with others...Or you could simply push the OK button on the steering wheel to clear the screen!
- OK
- Selected auto stop off
- select OK
- Select drive mode 4 presses
There is no reason to have to click ok, it's bad UX design, inefficient, and actually makes a person look away from the road more. Auto industry has a really bad habit of letting lawyers create the most epic UX Fails. Often creating new safety issues vs alleviate them.
While we're at it, tack on the lack of keeping certain setting like auto start persistent.
Can't wait for people to report for scan working with 2024.
