WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The system has 2 optional setting menus available through the Driver Assist menu in the message center. The last-known selection for each setting is stored by the IPMA and does not need to be set again after the key is cycled.

The Mode  setting allows the driver to select which of the system features will be enabled and turned on when the button is pressed. The 3 options in this menu are:

  • Lane Keeping Alert only - provides a steering wheel vibration when an unintended lane departure is detected.
  • Lane Keeping Aid only - provides steering input toward the center of the lane when an unintended lane departure is detected.
  • Lane Keeping Alert and Lane Keeping Aid - provides both a warning and steering input towards the center of the lane.

The Intensity  setting allows the driver to select the intensity of the steering wheel vibration used in lane keeping alert mode. This setting does not impact the lane keeping aid mode. The 3 options in this menu are:

  • Low
  • Normal
  • High
NOTE: The steering wheel performs a test vibration after the intensity setting is changed through the Driver Assist menu in the message center.
