Ah, okay. That makes more sense.

I have a 22 GT and have both (kick to open had to be activated for FORSCAN). I’ve had the auto park feature in multiple cars now and never use it. Honestly, my 15yo son with a permit can park faster. I also find myself force-stopping the autopark more in the Mach-e to avoid curb rash than in my other cars. You’re not missing much. Kick to open is fantastic however.

Kick to open has its own drawbacks - it once went off while my garage door was closing - left my hatch with a nice scratch. Shut off the functionality after that.

I've had my new GT for about 2 weeks now. About half of that was in the shop getting tint, PPF, etc. As I'm still learning and playing around with settings I'm noticing two things that I thought were on all GT models but mine are missing. (Quick note to say, you're right, I should know all the features of the car I purchased, look at the sticker, etc but between chip shortages and poor OTA updating I've lost confidence in myself for knowing anything at this point)

The two features I would probably never use are:
Kick for tailgate
Auto parking

Are these just not around in the 23 GT? Ford chat says they should be. The in-dash manual has sections on them *if equipped*. I should have Blue Cruise too but we all know that story.

If it makes you feel better I have had my 21 almost a year and never pushed active park assist, I mean to try it, but always forget when parking.

Pressing the physical |P| button on the center console just brings up a 99% blank screen and offers to help find local parking near me. So dumb to even include that button - they should at least have it bring up 360 cameras or something.

There is a DIY mod you can do to rewire the parking assist button to activate the 360 camera when you press it

How do you tell based on the sticker that those features are not included? I can't find it on my and no reimbursement

Those features were never in the order guide for 2023, so their omission wouldn’t be on any window sticker.

Is that just for GT or all 2023?

All 2023s.

Hi Is there a guide to do that?

There is but it's fairly intense. I'd rather just wait for the newest software that gives the button at the top of the screen. I'll try to find that post later.

I have Kick to Open (KtO) on my ‘21 and it only works sporadically. I use my middle finger after failing KtO more often than having KtO work. Of course when I tell someone that it rarely works, it works on the first try for them to witness. ??

I still haven’t tried the Park Assist button, but I also don’t think it’s on my car since I think it relies on the 360 cameras that are not on my car. This would make that button as useless on my ‘21 as it is on a ‘23. ??

Park assist relies on the parking sensors.
