One of the most innovative and helpful features in the Ford Co-Pilot360™ suite of safety technologies is Ford Active Park Assist. Parallel parking is the bane of many drivers’ existence, but fear no more with Ford Active Park Assist. With his helpful feature, say goodbye to frustration and stress around parallel parking, and hello to effortlessly gliding into a tight parking spot. Here is an overview of how this innovative technology works and why it is helpful.

What Ford Active Park Assist Does

Ford Active Park Assist utilizes a network of ultrasonic sensors to scan for parking spaces as you drive past. When it finds a suitable spot for your vehicle, it alerts you and takes control of the steering, shifting, braking, and accelerating of the car. All you need to do is hit the Active Park Assist 2.0 button, while the vehicle takes care of maneuvering the vehicle into the spot.

If your vehicle is equipped with Enhanced Active Park Assist, the system can also help you get out of a tight parallel parking spot, as well as provide assistance in reverse perpendicular parking.
