Owner report 11629201 · 2024-12-06 (December 6, 2024)
While using the Ford BlueCruise system the Eye Detection monitor is not detecting that I am looking forward while driving and frequently goes first to the "Watch the Road" initial warning, which is supposed to clear by pressing the OK button on the steering wheel. Several times clicking the OK does not clear the initial warning and then the vehicle goes into a more active response by suddenly braking with the Resume Control warning which is supposed to deactivate when you press the gas pedal, however in one instance the system did not deactiv…

Owner report 11747879 · 2026-07-02 (July 2, 2026)
Traveling from [XXX] to [XXX] and when I had the lane departure/lane keeping system turned on, the system was constantly going into the Watch the Road warning and many times it went straight to Resume Control without first putting up the Watch the Road that is supposed to be the initial stage. More than once when the system would go directly to the Resume Control, the only way to get rid of the warning and the brake pulsing and four way activation was by turning the cruise control completely off - pressing the Cancel or OK to acknowledge the wa…

Owner report 11652766 · 2025-04-04 (April 4, 2025)
While using the Ford BlueCruise system which is supposed to keep the vehicle centered in the lane along when it is in use on the highways it is programmed for, the system in this vehicle wanders throughout the lane from one side lane marker to the other lane marker. When first setting the cruise control which activates the lane assist program in this vehicle, it wants to initially justify to the left (drivers side) lane marker and fights any input from the driver to re-center the vehicle in the lane. If I let the system take the full control, a…

Owner report 11760280 · 2026-08-28 (August 28, 2026)
During a short drive between [XXX] and [XXX] roughly 27 miles, the red battery light on the dash display illuminated just as we were turning into the Holiday/Circle K gas station in [XXX]. No other warnings or messages appeared on the dash, and upon restart after returning to the vehicle, the red battery light did not reappear. However from that point on my return drive to [XXX], the Hybrid Electric Drive would not engage unless I was fully coasting with zero accelerator input and even when letting off the accelerator the vehicle would slow d…
