Ford Evasive Steering Assist is part of Ford Co-Pilot360. Several Ford vehicles have it standard and available. In Ford's words, it "helps make close calls not so close." We're going to look at how it works so you can see how beneficial it can be to have a car. more Ford Evasive Steering Assist: What Is It? Evasive Steering Assist works with several other driver assistance features to help you avoid accidents. If hitting the brakes will be enough to prevent the collision, then evasively steering to avoid the crash may help instead. When activated, Evasive Steering Assist helps you steer your way to safety, but it doesn't steer your vehicle for you. If you don't begin steering, then the feature won't activate and maneuver you to safety on its own. How It Works Your Ford uses a camera and radar sensors to monitor the road. When the camera radar sensors detect that you'll need to brake or steer around the car in front of you to avoid crashing, then Pre-Collision Assist will send you a warning. If needed, your vehicle will automatically apply the brakes to help you slow down and avoid a crash. However, braking isn't always sufficient to prevent a collision, so you might try to steer out of the way. Evasive Steering Assist pitches in and applies more steering torque, a.k.a. more force, to steer you around the vehicle faster. Once you're out of harm's way, Evasive Steering Assist applies some steering torque in the other direction to remind you to get back into your lane. This can be helpful if the incident spooked you and you need that extra reminder. The system deactivates once you've avoided the hazard. How It Enhances Safety Evasive Steering Assist can help detect slow-moving and unmoving vehicles in front of you, acting like a second pair of eyes watching the road to make sure you see everything that could threaten your safety. Because it applies additional force to get you out of difficult situations, it may help you avoid a crash if your efforts aren't enough to prevent one. You may not always steer hard enough or brake fast enough on your own, so your Ford has your back. Come to Cloninger Ford of Salisbury in Salisbury, NC, to look for cars with Evasive Steering Assist.

As your Ford dealer, we offer a complete range of services to keep your vehicle in good condition. Regular maintenance reduces vehicle operating costs and extends its life so you can enjoy your Ford for many years to come. We want to tell you more about a few examples of the Ford maintenance we provide. more Examples of Ford Maintenance Available at Your Ford Dealer Wheel Balancing Correct wheel balancing is important as it lets them grip the surface firmly, making driving safer and easier. In addition, balanced tires suffer less wear and tear as surface friction damage is equalized across the tread. As time passes, your tires can become unbalanced due to lost tire weights or other issues. We correct this problem by attaching each tire to our computerized balancing machine. This machine spins the tire at high speed to mimic driving and then analyzes the results. A balanced tire's center of gravity should be located around its hub. The machine will identify balance issues, which our technicians correct by adding weight to the affected areas to bring them back into line. Timing Belt Replacement Your Ford has several belts, but the timing belt is the most important. This belt, made from tough, reinforced rubber, connects the camshaft at the top of the engine to the crankshaft at the bottom. The belt moves at a precisely timed speed, synchronizing the movements of the two engine sections. As time passes, the belt can become worn or damaged. It can also partially slip off its pulley, disrupting the engine timing. If the belt is damaged or not working correctly, you'll hear ticking noises, feel engine vibrations, or suffer repeated engine misfiring. Once the belt is replaced, your engine will work efficiently again. Brake Servicing The brakes are one of your most important safety systems, giving you full control over your speed. The braking system is mechanical, depending on force and pressure to work effectively. Force and pressure generate heat, and these conditions increase wear and tear on system components. In addition, brake components, like the pads, gradually wear out and become less effective. Our technicians examine and test all braking components to ensure they're in good condition and working efficiently. The system is checked for leaks and tested to ensure it operates at the correct pressure. Your brake fluid is also drained and replaced. Book your maintenance by contacting us at Cloninger Ford in Salisbury, NC.
