Looked in the display menu and the manual and couldn't find where one can stop the radio from playing when the you park and shut off the engine, I prefer not to have the radio play until I exit the vehicle. Assume it can be done thanks

You could try using Forscan to go into the APIM configuration and disable "Radio Without Ignition Switch". This WI probably also not permit turning the radio on by just pushing the power button without the switch in at least ACC. I am just guessing as I have no plans to do this, but may serve you needs.

Or you could just turn the radio off.
Not trying to be a smartass or anything, but that's the simplest solution I can think of.

On my wife's Hyundai there is an option to turn it off, don't think Hyundai is superior to Ford but in this respect perhaps, it's somewhat of a nit but it does annoy me.

thanks for the responses.
