2015 Ford Edge Awarded Top Safety Rating

JACKSON, Mich.– Whether you have a family or just love a vehicle that looks good, look to the 2015 Ford Edge for your next crossover. Why? The new Edge is the complete package with astonishing performance specs, breathtaking looks, and technology inclined toward the highest degree of safety. In fact, most recently the 2015 Ford Edge was awarded the top safety rating from the U.S. government!

Comprehensive safety technology was at the helm of the crossover’s new design, so it’s no surprise the 2015 Ford Edge was awarded the top safety rating of five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

For starters, sensors and cameras are a prominent safety aspect on the 2015 Ford Edge. Curve Control, side paring sensors, a new 180-degree front camera with a washer, and a standard rear camera all help you stay aware of your surroundings and out of harm’s way. Similar to the sensor technology, Adaptive Cruise Control uses radar to monitor moving vehicles ahead of you, and adjusts your cruising speed to keep a safe following distance.

Up next, Collision Warning with Brake Support is able to track how quickly the distance is closing between you and another vehicle. If the space between another vehicle and yours is closing too quickly, the system provides audio and visual alerts while pre-charging your brakes to allow you to stop in the blink of an eye.

Protecting your passengers, Inflatable Rear Safety Belts combine the standard seat belt with new airbag technologies to reduce head, neck and chest injuries that could occur in an accident. Another new airbag feature can be found in the Standard Active Glove Box Knee Airbag! This technology utilizes the glove box as a form of protection for passengers’ knees in the case of a collision.

Thanks to the 2015 Ford Edge, drivers can stop their constant search for a crossover that contains the performance capabilities, style and safety they’re looking for. Ford has a long history of designing vehicles that break past industry standards, and the 2015 Ford Edge is just another example. You can find an array of New Ford Cars and New Ford Trucks that meet these standards at our Marshall Area Ford Dealership!

Ford F-150 is the Top Selling Vehicle for Military Members

JACKSON, Mich.- The long Memorial Day weekend is over, and now you’re back to the grind with a workday routine. But for our military men and women, their jobs require them to constantly acknowledge the cost of freedom in America, and Memorial Day is hardly considered a break for them. It’s a tough gig to handle, which is why they need a vehicle they can rely on. When it comes to these heroes’ personal vehicle of choice, the Ford F-150 was the top selling vehicle for military members across every branch in 2014!

This isn’t the first time our military men and women have sided with the F-150 over other pickups. Ford’s most popular truck was also their vehicle of choice in 2013 – when it was also a Top Safety Pick – and it seems likely it will be a top choice in 2015 as well. So whether you serve in the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy or Coast Guard, we extend our thanks to you for your service and for once again choosing the Ford F-150 as your preferred vehicle.

The F-150’s popularity is far from being a new phenomenon. The Ford F-150 is the top selling vehicle for military members, but for the 38^th year in a row it has also held that honor for nationwide sales! Yeah, that’s a long run, and that’s why we have such a vast inventory of New Ford Trucks and Used Ford Trucks that you can find at our Dexter Area Ford Dealership!

Seymour Ford Lincoln is located at 2601 Seymour Road in Jackson, Michigan 49201. No matter what your auto need, we will work hard to ensure you never leave our dealership unsatisfied! Visit us at SeymourFord.com and SeymourLincoln.net or give us a call at (517) 787-9500.

F-150 Showcases New Towing Capabilities

JACKSON, Mich.– As expected, Ford’s newest generation of the F-150 is getting a great deal of attention. Aside from its design and overall performance abilities, the F-150 showcases towing capabilities that make it a truck worthy of your time!

The F-150 has always been a durable truck, but this time it’s stronger than ever. The high strength steel frame at the core of the F-150’s towing power provides stability, and with the truck’s tow/haul mode you can run your trailer up and down steep grades without worrying!

It helps for a truck to have muscle when you’re towing heavy loads, but without the advanced technology present in the F-150’s towing system you would be at a loss. With the Smart Trailer Tow Connector, you can stay aware of what’s going on by receiving updates on your trailer’s connections status, lighting and battery alerts, warnings, and specs like your trailer’s gain, pitch and steering angle. An added convenience to this system is that it keeps track of information on up to ten separate trailers!

Safety is a primary goal for Ford, and the F-150 showcases new towing capabilities that are engineered to protect you from danger. Trailer Sway Control is a feature that pays attention to whether or not your trailer is swaying. If it senses anything amiss, it immediately applies the breaks, and even cuts down your engine’s power if need be. The Trailer Break Controller also helps you come to a safe stop by synchronizing your F-150’s breaks with the trailer breaks.

Ford Motor Company is always striving to provide customers with an enjoyable experience, which is why they’ve included a super convenient feature in the F-150’s towing system. Rather than struggling to connect your trailer to the hitch, Dynamic Hitch Assist’s rearview camera helps you align your trailer hitch on the first try. All you have to do is follow the guides on your screen inside the truck!

With such an advanced towing system among other innovations, its no wonder the F-150 is considered the best truck available. But Ford’s advanced engineering and design doesn’t stop with the F-150. You can find the same reliability in all of the automaker’s New Ford Cars and New Ford Trucks available at our MarshallArea Ford Dealer!

Seymour Ford Lincoln is located at 2601 Seymour Road in Jackson, Michigan 49201. No matter what your auto need, we will work hard to ensure you never leave our dealership unsatisfied! Visit us at SeymourFord.com and SeymourLincoln.net or give us a call at (517) 787-9500.
