WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death. WARNING: Some situations and
objects prevent hazard detection. For
example low or direct sunlight, inclement
weather, unconventional vehicle types,
and pedestrians. Apply the brakes when
necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death. WARNING:
The system cannot
help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed.
Using the Pre-Collision Assist
System
The system is active at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h) and pedestrian detection
is active at speeds up to
50 mph
(80 km/h). If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
another stationary vehicle, a vehicle
traveling in the same direction as yours, or
a pedestrian within your driving path, the
system provides three levels of
functionality:
1. Alert.
2. Brake support. 3. Active braking.
Alert
: When active, a flashing visual
warning appears and an audible warning
tone sounds.
Brake support
: The system helps reduce
the impact speed by preparing the brakes
for rapid braking. Brake support does not
automatically apply the brakes. If you press
the brake pedal, the system could apply
additional braking up to maximum braking
force, even if you lightly press the brake
pedal.
Active braking
: It activates if the system
determines that a collision is about to
occur. The system can help the driver
reduce impact damage or completely
avoid the crash.
Note: Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to 80 mph (130 km/h).
If your vehicle has a radar sensor, included
with adaptive cruise control, then brake
support and active braking are active up to
the maximum speed of your vehicle.
Note: If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
you can reduce the alert sensitivity, though
we recommend using the highest sensitivity
setting where possible. Setting lower
sensitivity would lead to fewer and later
system warnings.
Note: The system turns off when you
manually disable AdvanceTrac ™.

Evasive Steering Assist
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a
stationary vehicle or a vehicle traveling in
the same direction as your vehicle, the
system helps you steer around the vehicle. The system only activates when all of the
following occur:
•
The pre-collision assist system detects
a vehicle ahead and starts to apply
active braking.
• You turn the steering wheel in an
attempt to steer around the vehicle.
229

Page 233 of 494

After you turn the steering wheel, the
system applies additional steering torque
to help you steer around the vehicle. After
you pass the vehicle, the system applies
steering torque in the opposite direction to
encourage you to steer back into the lane.
The system deactivates after you fully pass
the vehicle.
Note:
The system does not automatically
steer around a vehicle. If you do not turn the
steering wheel, the system does not
activate.
Note: The system does not activate if the
distance to the vehicle ahead is too small
and you cannot avoid a crash.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist
Settings
Depending on your vehicle options, the
pre-collision assist settings can be in the
following:
• Information display. See General
Information (page 102).
• Touchscreen. See
Settings (page 391).
You can adjust the following settings:
• Change alert and distance alert
sensitivity to one of three possible
settings.
• Switch distance indication and alert on
or off.
• If required, switch active braking on or
off.
• If required, switch evasive steering
assist on or off.
Note: Active braking and evasive steering
assist turn on every time you switch the
ignition on. Note:
If you switch active braking off,
evasive steering assist turns off.
Blocked Sensors Camera.

WHAT IS G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has several goes over
any-type of terrain (G.O.A.T.) modes that
you can select for different driving
conditions. Depending on the mode that
you select, the system adjusts various
vehicle settings.
HOW DOES G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL WORK
Each selectable mode changes various
electronic and mechanical settings within
your vehicle to tailor its performance and
driving characteristics to on-road or
off-road driving conditions. The system
can alter steering feel and effort, traction
control, stability control, chassis controls,
powertrain response, transmission shift
points, four-wheel driveline settings and
the exhaust noise level to a
pre-determined setting, depending upon
the mode that you select.
Your vehicle reverts to normal mode each
time you start it.
Note:
Your vehicle has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor all systems for
proper operation. If a mode is unavailable
due to a system fault, your vehicle defaults
to normal mode and the driveline remains
in the four-wheel drive setting that you last
selected prior to the system fault. SELECTING A G.O.A.T. MODE -
1.5L ECOBOOST™
To select a drive mode, use the console
mounted G.O.A.T. MODES controller.

ROOF RACKS AND LOAD
CARRIERS
WARNING: When loading the roof
racks, we recommend you evenly
distribute the load, as well as maintain
a low center of gravity. Loaded vehicles,
with higher centers of gravity, may
handle differently than unloaded
vehicles. Take extra precautions, such
as slower speeds and increased stopping
distance, when driving a heavily loaded
vehicle. For correct roof rack system operation,
directly place loads on crossbars affixed
to the roof rack side rails. When using the
roof rack system, we recommend you use
our genuine accessory crossbars designed
specifically for your vehicle.
Make sure that you securely fasten the
load. Check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each fuel stop.
Note:
Never place loads directly on the roof
panel. The roof panel is not designed to
directly carry a load.
Maximum Roof Load Amounts
Note: The maximum roof load is based on
the load being evenly distributed on the
crossbars. Maximum Roof Load
Weight on Crossbar (Total)
100 lb (45 kg)
Vehicles equipped with Panoramic Roof.
150 lb (68 kg)
Vehicles without Panoramic Roof.
Note: When using a roof rack system, you
must subtract the weight of the roof rack
system from the maximum recommended
load to determine your actual maximum
cargo load. See the roof rack system
manufacturer for more information.
LOAD LIMIT
Vehicle Loading - with and
without a Trailer
This section guides you in the
proper loading of your vehicle,
trailer, or both. Keep your loaded
vehicle weight within its design
rating capability, with or without
a trailer. Properly loading your
vehicle provides maximum return
of vehicle design performance. Before you load your vehicle,
become familiar with the
following terms for determining
your vehicle
’s weight rating, with
or without a trailer, from the
