Cool Crash warning?

Does anyone know if Ford eliminated the led hud warning light from the dash on the 2019’s (platinum /lariat/llimited)?


Thanks

Thank you. Do you know how they do the alerts now? Audio, IC panel?

Damn, they keep deleting crap (and increasing prices) from vehicles every freaking year. Geez. Anyway, I've never seen my light other than when starting the truck, but I'm pretty sure it must attract our attention quick; seems pretty bright. Is there an audible alert as well? I never read about that light. Must have missed it when I read the manual. I have the emergency braking set to the least intrusive mode, and that's probably why I haven't seen it yet. Which is good, I guess. Ha ha. My 2018 truck got the cut from the PRNDS light, the multi-color ambient lighting, the nice LED DRLs (mine look like crap), and other things I forgot already.

I despise mine. The flashing on the windshield sucks when you're trying to take evasive actions. And yes, there's a very irritating, loud, insistent "BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP" audible warning.

You can add the multi-color lighting back in if you want. My 2018 has it.

It's annoying, I'd gladly get rid of mine. It goes off whenever someone is turning right and I'm not braking even though I have plenty of room.
