Request to Ford, could the reverse brake assist off be location based like the charge target? I have a steep driveway and like to back in. It’s steep enough to cause the assist to lock the brakes as I’m backing in.

So I turned it off. But now when backing up in a shopping parking lot it is off. Would be nice to just surpass it in my driveway vice everywhere.

Anyone else think this would improve MachE safety?

Thanks, Benjamin

Similar situation, but I back out of my garage and the driveway is only a little steep. I get the phantom braking about 1 out of 10 times I leave the garage. It’s startling.

And we get phantom braking while slowly backing into our garage. Quite startling, and makes it difficult to do a smooth park.

I’d settle for BlueCruise not getting the speed limit wrong on the motorway and braking down from 70 to 50 for no reason.
