[QUOTE="FL4x4, post: 1429269, member: 36679"] How your Adaptive Cruise works is dependent upon what year Raptor you have. I have a 2019 Fully Loaded Raptor purchased at the end of June: First of all, one of the options listed on the window sticker was: "[B][COLOR=#ffffff]ADAPT CRUISE-STOPGO-PRECOLLIS[/COLOR][/B]" [B][COLOR=#ffffff]Below is a description of how my Adaptive Cruise behaves:[/COLOR][/B] I have had the [B][COLOR=#ff0000]Collision Alert[/COLOR][/B]! notice pop-up on my instrument panel a few times. Yes, I'm a very aggressive driver. I was a COP and I drive a Raptor. What I've also noticed is that when the Collision Alert pops-up on the screen, there is NO Red LED strip that lights up and reflects off the windshield like on previous models of Raptors. I've looked at the dash and the LED strip is just not there. Of the several times the Collision Alert has popped-up, Only once (so far) has the truck freaked out and [B][U][COLOR=#ffffff]applied the brakes[/COLOR][/U][/B] thinking I was about to crash us. It did this WITHOUT Cruise control being active, just driving in "Normal" drive Mode. My Raptor also has a "[B][COLOR=#ffffff]Stop and Go[/COLOR][/B]" feature that I use daily during my commute to and from work in stop-and-go traffic. It works like this. I set my cruise control (either moving or while stopped) in my case it's 35mph. The truck will then come to a [B][COLOR=#ffffff]COMPLETE STOP[/COLOR][/B] behind the vehicle in front of me on [B]its own[/B] and holds the brake until either I take over or the vehicle in front of me moves. The moment the car in front of me starts moving, the truck will start moving [B][COLOR=#ffffff]AUTOMATICALLY[/COLOR][/B] and when the vehicle in front of me stops, so does my Raptor, without me doing anything with the Brake or Accelerator. There is a [B][COLOR=#ffffff]time out[/COLOR][/B] that kicks in if you're stopped in traffic for about 60 seconds or more, you'll see the word "[B][COLOR=#ffffff]STOPPED[/COLOR][/B]" displayed just above the lane keeping icons on the instrument panel. When this happens, the truck [B]WILL NOT[/B] begin to move automatically until you press the "[B][COLOR=#ffffff]RES[/COLOR][/B]" (Resume) button on the steering wheel. I press "RES" as soon as "STOPPED" is displayed WHILE THE TRUCK IS STILL STOPPED IN TRAFFIC and that resets the 60 second timer that will disengage the Stop and Go feature. The truck will then automatically start moving again as soon as the vehicle in front of me does without me doing anything else. I have a 2018 VOLVO XC60 Hybrid with "Pilot Assist" cruise control that does almost the same thing as my Raptor, except it also steers the car and is a little more advanced than the system in my Raptor, but they work very much the same way. Bottom line is this for my 2019 Raptor: 1. My 2019 Raptor [B][COLOR=#ffffff]WILL (and has)[/COLOR][/B] apply the brakes if it thinks it's going to crash. 2. It can manage stop and go traffic [B][COLOR=#ffffff]by itself[/COLOR][/B] without me applying the brake or accelerator. 3. While cruising down the highway with the Adaptive Cruise Control Set it [B][COLOR=#ffffff]WILL apply the brakes when needed[/COLOR][/B] and even come to a complete stop and then resume moving without ANY input from me. 4. Some of these features such as Pre-Collision Alerts and Braking are disable in some drive Modes such as Baja. [/QUOTE]
