Have you ever dinged another car while parking? It’s funny how such a little mistake can be a stressful, costly headache. With Ford Active Park Assist, your chances of unwanted bumps and scrapes while parallel parking are dramatically reduced, and with Enhanced Active Park Assist, you’re also helped with perpendicular parking and getting out of tight spots.

Ford Park Assist Coughlin Ford of Pataskala

Active Park Assist Makes Parallel Parking Easy

Let’s start with the base feature. When you’re looking for a parallel parking spot, slow your car to under 20 mph and press the Active Park Assist button. Your car will then use radar technology to scan for a perfect spot. You can turn on the indicator light before activating the feature to tell your car which side you’d like to park on.

Your car will let you know when a good spot has been located. You then position your car properly, let go of the steering wheel, and follow the directions on your instrument panel to control the gas and brakes while your car neatly steers you into position.

With potential cost savings, zero tailpipe emissions and less routine maintenance, many drivers are making the switch to Ford electric vehicles. Advances in battery technology and new innovations mean that electric vehicles are a practical choice that also delivers on economy. To find out more about what you can expect from driving an electric vehicle, take a trip to your local Ford dealership today.

Generous Battery Range

One of the biggest concerns that drivers have about switching to electric power is how far they’ll be able to travel before needing to recharge. A full electric charge is roughly equivalent to a full tank of gas, providing up to 250 miles depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. With the available Extended Range Batteries, the potential range could be increased up to a maximum of 320 miles.

Comparing the potential range to your daily mileage will help you determine whether an electric vehicle fits your lifestyle. For many people, a single full charge can last for several days, even without any top-up charges in between.

Ford vehicles come with a range of standard driver assistance features, and one that you’ll see often is Ford Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking. This feature can be invaluable when it activates, so let’s get to know it a little better.

Emergency Braking Ford Assist

What Does Ford Pre-Collision Assist Do?

Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking acts like a co-pilot. It keeps an eye on the road whenever possible, including at night, when your car’s lights illuminate the area in front of you. The feature can detect both vehicles and pedestrians ahead, both stationary and moving. If there’s an object in front of you that you’re in danger of colliding with, then it sends you multiple warnings to get you to take action and slow down or stop.

When the system is trying to tell you that you may be in danger, it’ll make a chiming noise and display a message on the information display telling you what’s wrong. If you don’t do anything to remedy the situation, then the system gets the brakes charged up in preparation. This makes your brakes more responsive when you step on the pedal.
