Ford Co-Pilot 360 Features in Canton, TX

Guide to 2024 Ford Co-Pilot 360™ Features

Ford Co-Pilot 360 is the next level of Ford’s advanced safety and driver assistance technology. This latest iteration of the suite includes 10 available features, each of which is detailed below:

1. Lane-Keeping System: Sometimes, you may not notice when driving fatigue hits you on long trips. The lane-keeping system helps keep you alert and in the correct lane on clearly marked roads by scanning your vehicle position between the lines. If you begin to drift into a neighboring lane, the system will let you know with an audible cue, and if it occurs on multiple occasions, you’ll see a coffee cup icon on your dash, indicating that it’s time for a short break.
2. BLIS® with Cross Traffic Alert: Ford’s Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®) alerts you with visual and audio cues when there are vehicles in your blind spot and also detects cross traffic when you’re backing out of a parking spot.
3. Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking: This system acts as an extra pair of eyes on the road, using advanced sensors and cameras to scan the road ahead for potential collisions. If a collision becomes imminent, and if no corrective actions are taken, it automatically engages the brakes when necessary.
4. Adaptive Cruise Control: This system combines road sign recognition to recognize traffic signs and adjust your speed as needed, stop-and-go to keep your vehicle moving in heavy traffic, and lane centering, which scans the road markings to monitor your vehicle’s position in the lane.
5. BLIS with Trailer Coverage: This system uses radar sensors to monitor your vehicle's blind spots, extending the coverage to include the length of a trailer when towing. This system alerts you to vehicles in these blind spots, enhancing safety during lane changes and maneuvers.
6. Auto High-Beam Headlamps: To enhance your nighttime vision without impairing others, this system uses sensors to detect oncoming traffic and automatically dim your high-beam headlights so that you don’t blind other drivers.
7. Pro Trailer Backup Assist™: Pro Trailer Backup Assist allows you to easily back up your trailer by using a knob to control its direction while the system automatically steers the vehicle. This feature is popular among truck shoppers and is available on all trim levels of the Ford F-150 and Super Duty models.
8. Evasive Steering Assist: This system won’t steer your vehicle for you, but it does provide gentle assistance and quick alerts if a slowed or stopped vehicle is detected in your path.
9. Rear View Camera: When you’re backing out of a parking spot or completing a three-point turn, you don’t have to strain to see the area behind your vehicle. Just shift into reverse, and the rear-view camera system will activate, giving you a clear view of the road behind you.
10. Hill Descent Control™: This system helps you maintain a set speed when you’re traveling down a steep incline by automatically applying the brakes whenever they are needed.
