Ford Connected Services Features
01
FordPass™ App
The FordPass™ mobile application serves as your digital key to enhanced vehicle ownership, putting essential functions directly at your fingertips. This comprehensive platform allows drivers to remotely start their vehicles, lock and unlock doors, and check fuel levels or battery status from virtually anywhere.
FordPass™ enhances routine vehicle management into a streamlined digital experience. The app also provides access to exclusive FordPass Rewards™ to help you save on Ford service in Hereford.
02
BlueCruise Technology
BlueCruise serves as hands-free Ford driving technology, available on properly equipped new Ford models. This sophisticated system uses cameras, radar and precision GPS mapping to maintain safe following distances, stay centered in lanes and navigate gentle curves without constant driver input.
This technology combines convenience with safety through continuous driver monitoring, ensuring the system only operates when drivers remain alert and engaged. BlueCruise covers more than 130,000 miles of divided highways across North America, including major routes that connect the Texas Panhandle to metropolitan areas.
03
Ford Connectivity Package
The Ford Connectivity Package delivers essential connected features that keep drivers informed and entertained throughout their journey. This comprehensive suite includes Wi-Fi® Hotspot capability, allowing passengers to stay connected to the internet while on the road, plus advanced voice recognition that responds to natural speech patterns.
Real-time traffic updates and route optimization help drivers navigate efficiently around congestion and construction delays. The system automatically suggests alternate routes based on current traffic conditions, saving time and reducing stress during daily commutes or longer trips.
04
Ford Security Package
Advanced security features protect your investment while providing comprehensive monitoring of your vehicle's status and location. The Ford Security Package includes theft alarm systems, remote vehicle location services and automatic crash notification that contacts emergency services when serious accidents are detected.
Stolen vehicle assistance works with law enforcement to help recover vehicles through GPS tracking technology, while perimeter alerts notify owners when their vehicle is moved without authorization. These features prove especially valuable for drivers who park in public areas or travel frequently for work.
05
Connected Navigation
Ford Connected Navigation integrates real-time data with detailed mapping to provide the most efficient routes for every journey. Unlike smartphone navigation apps, this built-in system is optimized for your specific Ford model and considers vehicle performance characteristics when calculating routes.
Live traffic information and weather updates help drivers make informed decisions about departure times and route selection. The system automatically adjusts recommendations based on current conditions, construction zones and seasonal weather patterns common to the Texas Panhandle region.
06
Ford Performance Upgrade
Ford performance models like the Mustang Mach-E GT™ benefit from exclusive connected features designed to enhance the driving experience and monitor vehicle performance metrics. From more horsepower and torque to faster 0-60 mph times, the Ford Performance Upgrade package is ideal for drivers who appreciate precision handling and the type of performance that's associated with the Ford Racing team.
