Agreed, the one in the pic I posted is for my friend's Tremor and it's a fake obd port purchased from Amazon. He bought it white as the port comes in the truck is white.
My 2023 Tremor got stolen - 1 month new!

It’s insane that someone should have to spend $1k plus on an aftermarket security system to stop something like this from happening.
In my opinion, even if the wires to the horn were cut, as soon as the door was unlocked without the actual fob present or via the keypad, or a combination of both that can be setup by the owner, once the interior sensors picked up movement, the vehicle should have immediately cut off the fuel pump, go into deep sleep mode, and an alert should have been sent to the FordPass app with an automatic phone call.
Hell, even having something as simple as Apple’s Face ID to start the vehicle would have prevented this.
Ford should really take a look at the company behind their “vehicle security software” because this seems like something that could easily be fixed.
