2022 Ford Bronco Owners Manual - Locating the Pre-Collision Assist Sensors

Locating the Pre-Collision Assist Sensors

1Camera. 2Radar sensor (if equipped).

If a message regarding a blocked sensor or camera appears in the instrument cluster display, something is obstructing the radar signals or camera images. If your vehicle has a radar sensor, it is behind the fascia cover in the center of the lower grille. With a blocked sensor or camera, the system may not function, or performance may reduce.   See   Pre-Collision Assist – Information Messages. 

Note:   Proper system operation requires a clear view of the road by the camera. Have any windshield damage in the area of the camera's field of view repaired.

Note:   If something hits the front end of your vehicle or damage occurs and your vehicle has a radar sensor, the radar sensing zone could change. This could cause missed or false vehicle detections. Have your vehicle serviced to have the radar checked for proper coverage and operation.

Note:   If your vehicle detects excessive heat at the camera or a potential misalignment condition, a message could appear in the instrument cluster display indicating temporary sensor unavailability. When operational conditions are correct, the message deactivates. For example, when the ambient temperature around the sensor decreases or the sensor recalibrates successfully.

WHAT IS DISTANCE INDICATION
