Man I have a 2020 mustang GT and this always goes off. There won’t even be a car in front of me and it does it. Honestly it’s liable to make me wreck instead of help. It was just annoying because it scares me. Thanks for the video!
@@williamcbrown7813 Do you just want the collision warning turned off? You have to go in your settings on in the instrument cluster it should be under vehicle settings and it should show different settings like pre collision warning, headlights etc go to pre collision warning and you can adjust the sensitivity level from low, normal high and off check out your owner's manual it'll give you more detailed instructions
This and other things I have found do not like getting covered in snow and ice and stop working till sensors get cleared off. A heater and a cleaner is needed on the censors.
Hi. I have a 2017 Cadillac XT5. It has the accident avoidance system. The problem is I do not know which setting is high and what is low. It just has symbols of a car with red bars in front of it and a changing rear side of car in front of it.
While driving my 2019 Ford Ranger XLT it was very noticeable when changing lanes the truck was over steering back and forth like a ping pong affect. What sensors are used for the lane assist mechanism? My thoughts are the sensor or sensors may not be working properly or not working at all. It could also be the electronics that may be at fault. Thanks in advance for any sugges
Just received my 2022 maverick with this option. And with living in Michigan this option is more of a HUGE issue / problem then anything. On normal setting it has warned me and stopped me 3 times. Once when snowing, once in fog, and once when in inside lane and a vehicle pulled out on right turn on outside lane. NONE of these incidents was there a vehicle in front of me nor any object. However this option almost caused an accident with others around me or in back of me. I feel the creator's of these things need to think out of the box and realize that 1/2 of our population in just the United States don't live in mild or nice climates. Winter doesn't work with any.... adaptive or assist systems when in use. Going further if you turn it off or opt out and something is to happen... your insurance company will not pay claims due to any of these such options turned off. So I hope Ford is ready to pay claimes when these options cause the issues / accidents when they occur.
This is an awful feature, I would say traumatic since the first time it came off on my 2022 explorer!!! I was driving at 30 MPH and this horrible spud goes off. This feature can easily make you get into an accident!
So with my Ford Ranger everytime we get snow the front sensors get some ice on it, it sets the alert off and fights me on trying to drive. I am not talking like drive 10 miles and it happens, I would clean it off and start driving and mins later its doing it again. I did set the sensor to low and it still does it... racommendations?
Why does my assist go off and send me a flashing warning while driving past a neighbors drive way 50% of the time late at night with no other vehicles, or people around?
So I just took out the largest raccoon I've ever seen. It busted the sensor lose from the mount. The mount it's self easy replacement. However the plastic plug is broken lose. Going to attempt supper glue repair. If that doesn't work then off to the dealership
My system is not functioning properly and the Newburg Ford in Oregon was dumb enough to try to tell me my 2019 Lariat did not come with that feature even though you can turn it on and it has errors detecting pre collision. Like how dumb can ford techs get.
I HATE this feature! Every time it's gone off, I was already handling the situation. It's very distracting and draws your eyes from the road where they need to be. I think some of these safety features make drivers too dependent on them, so they're not really paying attention to other vehicles or road conditions.
It's to coddle people who shouldn't be driving to begin with. They should just make the driving test harder at the DMV. That will stop half the accidents.
The collision Warning feature on vehicles are the dumbest features ever! Next to the automatic shut engine off feature when you're sitting at a light - COMPLETLEY USELESS! These features do more harm than good. The first time the warning feature came on, scared the Hell out of me... like WTF???? Almost assisted in completing an accident, not helping. HATE IT!
Great job explaining the things no one else tells us about our cars. Thanks!

You can deactivate it
@@ChrisG-gl5st how

@@ChrisG-gl5st 2020 Ford Explorer I can fix the cosmetic problem smashed in plastic front bumper and crazy expensive plastic radiator air shield

I want to activate adaptive cruise control on my f350 King Ranch, hope you have a video on that.
i want to disable the chime as i cant use cruise until its done. front end and drivers door damage due to deer collision
The thing is that in Europe you'll see Ford Kuga instead of Escape...so now still cant find those optionas on the car...
I have a camry se 2023 the system is on but i have no sound warning and no break assistance
How to fix it
The car is brand new
What are the perameters? Do you have a video of the system working, what do the settings mean in distance?

I would talk to your service department, sounds like something is wrong with the sensors.
@@longmcarthurford Thank you, I will.
Having code in toyota corolla feilder.. uo23a lost communication with front camera module..what could be the exact cause . ??
Contact your local service department
Can the sound be adjusted? Mine is so loud.
No

@@nicefish10 you might have a sensor alignment issue.
Does this work with fixed objects as well ?
Yes
@@longmcarthurford mine must be broke !
@@Aceinfinity-le8zc You have to be going over 10 mph I think. It is not forward sensing system.
@@longmcarthurford gotcha !
My car is a little crazy 🤪 because sometime it makes the noise alert when their is no car in the sides so I just need help on fixing that
I would suggest going to your local ford dealer and having the sensors checked.
Max speed is only 120 mph?
How about pcs of ford territory.how to fix mulfunction
Well mines didn’t turn on when I rear ended
my pre-collision is not working on a 2020 ford exployrer 6 k miles on the car nothing is blocked
Mines didn’t activate or work when I rear ended someone’s
I keep getting alerts that my sensor is blocked.
@kharris0465 Sometimes the sensor can be blocked. It is at the top of the windshield behind the Rearview Mirror.
@@longmcarthurford Thanks.
2020 F150 Mine only worked once in 4,000 miles, even when I try to make it activate. So basically worthless.

I COMPLETLY AGREE !! I HATE THIS STUPID FEATURE!

There's way too much computer stuff in cars I think it makes things worse and causes people to wreck having too many sensors
@jamieeisenhower1560 I can agree somewhat, but this is one that is helping to avoid accidents.
5 min video that literally could of been 30 seconds 😂🤷🏽♂️
Too much unnecessary talk.
