About Ford Co-Pilot360™

The designers at Ford have been hard at work creating a suite of driver-assistive technology that works with you as you drive. The result is Ford Co-Pilot360™, which combines to give you a protective aura around you. The advanced sensors and computing built into the Ford Escape come together to keep an eye out for you on all sides.

Pre-Collision Assist

By scanning the road ahead, Pre-Collision Assist® stays alert for potential impacts ahead. The system gives you an alert when it senses another vehicle or a pedestrian ahead of you that you may hit. This warning gives you the change to correct course and minimize or avoid the collision.

If corrective action isn't taken, the Escape will engage Automatic Emergency Braking. This works in tandem with Pre-Collision Assist® by applying the brakes to slow and stop you before you collide with the obstacle ahead of you. This helps to keep you and other drivers safe and sound.

BLIS® and Cross Traffic Alert

The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®) comes standard on the 2023 Escape, and it makes highway driving a whole lot easier. When you flip your turn signal to change lanes or merge onto the road, BLIS® will detect the presence of any other vehicles in your blind spot. BLIS® keeps an eye out where you can't to let you know when it's safe to change lanes.

The same sensors used by BLIS® are used with Cross Traffic Alert as well. This feature searches for other vehicles coming toward you as you back out of a parking spot. You can reverse confidently knowing that the Escape will warn you of other drivers coming through the parking lot.

Lane Keeping System

A combination of three separate features, the Lane Keeping System helps to keep you on the straight path ahead. Lane-Keeping Aid senses when you veer off the center of your lane and notifies you. Lane-Keeping Alert will kick in with steering wheel vibrations to tell you where you're straying. As a final option, Driver Alert can engage if you've crossed out of your lane too far.

Available Safety Features

Along with the standard Escape safety systems, there are several available features you can add on for even more confidence.

• Active Park Assist 2.0: Lets the Escape pull into and out of tight parallel parking spaces using intelligent control.
• Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control: Senses the speed of vehicles ahead and sets cruise control to a safe speed and follow distance.
• Evasive Steering Assist: Provides extra steering support in the event of a possible collision.

These available technologies will turn your Ford Escape into a powerhouse of safety wherever you go.
