I was wondering about the perimeter alarm. What exactly is it and is it for sure on the base.

Itās definitely mentioned in hereā¦ I remember scrolling by it:I was wondering about the perimeter alarm. What exactly is it and is it for sure on the base.
The only thing the manual mentions is the remote start won't work if the perimeter alarm is sounding. There's no mention of what it is exactly. Also, there is a perimeter alarm available as an accessory, which makes me wonder why do they sell it as an accessory if it comes standard on all models.Itās definitely mentioned in hereā¦ I remember scrolling by it:

And itās listed as standard on the Base. I posted the screen cap earlier in this thread.
Mid package:Ford Co-Pilot360ā¢ technology ā Auto High-Beam Headlamps ā Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Pedestrian Detection and Forward Collision Warning with Dynamic Brake Support ā Rear View Camera with backup assist grid lines
So, looks like Mid package is adding BLIS and lane keeping system.Ford Co-Pilot360ā¢ ā Auto High Beams ā BLISĀ® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert ā Lane-Keeping System (Lane-Keeping Aid, Lane-Keeping Alert, Driver Alert System) ā Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Pedestrian Detection and Forward Collision Warning with Dynamic Brake Support ā Rear View Camera with backup assist grid lines
We're discussing limitations imposed on drivers while we're in the woods or rock crawling. Sorry if you misunderstood.Have you ever had a car with automatic braking. It shouldnāt be super noticeable unless youāre a bad driver.
Thank god. Those both sound annoying and I have no interest in paying for them.Mid size Bronco does not have lane centering or Stop and Go ACC available like the little sport does.
Iāve off roaded way back in the mountains with two vehicles with automated emergency braking. I think itās helpful to realize itās not for low-speed accident mitigation. It uses a camera to slow your speed by 10-15 miles an hour in the event of a high speed collision.We're discussing limitations imposed on drivers while we're in the woods or rock crawling. Sorry if you misunderstood.
Before I turned it off, my Ram 1500 used to panic brake every time I tried to back into my driveway because it detected the transition from the asphalt street to the concrete driveway as "OMG! He's trying to back me into a wall!"Have you ever had a car with automatic braking. It shouldnāt be super noticeable unless youāre a bad driver.
That does sound annoying. I will admit that Iāve never had reverse automatic braking. The Bronco doesnāt mention it, so Iād assume it doesnāt include it. Radar/Lidar has proven to be problematic and vision-based systems seem more intuitive somehow.Before I turned it off, my Ram 1500 used to panic brake every time I tried to back into my driveway because it detected the transition from the asphalt street to the concrete driveway as "OMG! He's trying to back me into a wall!"
That might have been resolved in a later software update, but I wouldn't know since I turned it off and haven't turned it back on since. I don't hit things backing up anyway, so it was a kind of useless feature.
Yes, those documents are unclear. They say the base includes:
ā¢ Ford Co-Pilot360ā¢ technology ā Auto High-Beam Headlamps ā Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Pedestrian Detection and Forward Collision Warning with Dynamic Brake Support ā Rear View Camera with backup assist grid lines
But it also says those are added in the mid package. So I'm confused. A window sticker would help.
Why are you responding to a post from 2.5 years ago?Ford is weird in how they describe things. Yes, Ford Co-Pilot360 is STANDARD for all Broncos. The capability of Ford Co-Pilot360 is different. For the MID+ package they say the following: notice the difference? They are essentially very long SKU ID's. One includes BLIS, Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane-Keeping System the other doesn't.
- Ford Co-Pilot360ā¢: Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), BLISĀ® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane-Keeping System, Auto High-Beam Headlamps, and Rear View Camera with Backup Assist Grid Lines
I sure hope OP got this figured out and wasn't waiting around for someone to answer.Ford is weird in how they describe things.
