Ford Focus safety

Advanced driver assistance systems^{Driver-assist features do not replace attention}

Lane-Keeping System

Exterior cameras can detect if you drift out of your lane. The system then alerts you by vibrating the steering wheel and can even provide gentle steering assistance to guide you back into the correct lane^{Lane-Keeping System driver attention notice}.

Cross Traffic Alert

The system helps to increase awareness when reversing out of spaces. It can detect if a vehicle is approaching from the sides, then sounds a warning and illuminates an alert light in the door mirror.
