What is the Reverse Sensing System in my Lincoln?

The available Reverse Sensing System* uses sensors in the rear bumper and a warning sound to alert you of obstacles behind your vehicle. 

The rear parking sensors are active when the transmission is in reverse (R) and the vehicle speed is less than 3 mph (5 km/h).

Notes:

  • Keep the sensors free from snow, ice, and accumulations of dirt.
  • Do not cover sensors.
  • Do not clean the sensors with sharp objects.
  • If your vehicle sustains damage, leaving the sensors misaligned, this may cause inaccurate measurements or false alerts.
  • Some accessories (e.g., larger trailer hitches, bike or surfboard racks) can cause reduced performance or false alerts.
