FordPass Connects With You

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

We've all been there when we can't remember if we locked our car doors or how much gas is left in the fuel tank. That's where FordPass Connect comes in. What Is FordPass Connect? Ford models equipped with this technology provide a range of features at your fingertips, such as remote start, vehicle checks, and more.

Ford Ranger customers in South Africa now have access to an enhanced ownership experience with the introduction of FordPass Connect. This is on all new XL, XLS, XLT, Wildtrak and Ranger Raptor models from February 2021 production – as well as the newly launched Ranger FX4.

Ford Ranger

FordPass builds on Ford’s legacy of democratising class-defining technologies, starting with the first-generation SYNC® infotainment system with voice control, through to the latest SYNC®3 with Navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on all XLT models upwards

FordPass: connectivity at your fingertips

When used together, the key features of the FordPass app and FordPass Connect include command and control functionality, key vehicle information, online resources and links to emergency roadside assistance.

FordPass

Vehicle Status and Remote Vehicle Monitoring: Through the FordPass app’s Vehicle Status feature, owners can check their vehicle’s key variables including fuel level and oil status, and tyre pressures (where the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System is fitted on the Wildtrak) and mileage through the convenience of their smartphone.

Remote Start and Stop (automatic models only): Using the FordPass app, drivers can start their vehicle’s engine from home, the office or elsewhere via smartphone, enabling the vehicle’s cabin to automatically start heating or cooling to the last used setting. This helps ensure a cool, comfortable interior on a hot summer day, or a de-iced, warmed, and inviting vehicle in winter. The vehicle is automatically locked when remote starting. It can only be driven once the driver inserts the ignition key or presses the ‘Start’ button with the proximity key in the vehicle. A scheduled start can also be programmed for a predetermined time via the FordPass app and can be configured to repeat on selected days throughout the week.

Remote Lock and Unlock: Drivers can lock and unlock their Ford remotely, meaning they don’t have to rush back to their cars to check if they have remembered to lock their doors. This also allows drivers to let passengers into their vehicles regardless of whether they are there or not.

Ford Pass Connect App

Vehicle Locator: Courtesy of a map and location tracker in the FordPass app, drivers can find their way back to their vehicle in a busy parking area without the need to remember exactly where they parked it. This is even more convenient when you share your vehicle with one or more members of your household.

Vehicle Health Alerts: The FordPass app capability extends to Vehicle Health Alerts, which can be sent directly to a smart device pre-empting service needs, general maintenance such as a low washer fluid alert, and more. The alert is designed to identify specific issues and even recommend a course of action.

Map and Search: Through the FordPass app, customers have access to an extensive range of search options, including Ford dealers, fuel stations, available parking, entertainment, coffee shops and travel destinations such as hotels and lodges.

Maintenance Schedule: All key vehicle information is available in the FordPass app, including the vehicle identification number (VIN), new vehicle warranty (including the start date for the four-year/120 000km comprehensive warranty), Ford Protect Plan (with expiry date and end distance for the six-year/90 000km service plan). The owner can also check the upcoming service intervals, and schedule service at their preferred dealer with the app linking to the www.myfordjourney.co.za website to facilitate this process.

Roadside Assistance: Throughout the FordPass app, customers have instant access to Ford's 24-hour emergency Roadside Assistance, which is valid for a period of three years/unlimited distance and is provided by the Automobile Association (AA). Vehicle Support: The app provides extensive additional resources for customers, including how-to videos explaining features and technologies in the Ranger, a digital Owner’s Manual, and an Alerts Guide addressing a few issues such as water in fuel, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) warning, and numerous other warning messages.

FordPass Guide: When you need help, a friendly FordPass Guide is there to offer one-to-one assistance via phone or e-mail, directly from the app.

Over-the-air updates: FordPass Connect enables over-the-air (OTA) modem software updates seamlessly via the embedded modem to keep the vehicle current with the latest technology, performance, and safety by wirelessly delivering features and quality enhancements – without requiring a visit to a dealer or service centre.

Next-Gen Ford Everest coming to CMH Ford Randburg

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

The next-gen Everest break down with CMH Ford Randburg.

Inside, premium levels of craftsmanship have created a quiet and refined sanctuary for up to seven occupants. At the same time, class-leading technology and safety make every journey more memorable.

Customer-focused technology

Next-gen Everest is loaded with Ford's latest SYNC® 4A system, which comes customer-ready with its voice-activated communications, entertainment, and information systems also featuring large, high-resolution portrait 10.1- or 12-inch touchscreens. Additionally, an embedded factory-fitted modem allows customers to connect to Everest when linked with the FordPass™ App.

The portrait-orientated screen is also linked to a 360-degree camera with a split-view display to make parking a breeze in tight urban spaces or assist when negotiating particularly tricky terrain while out exploring. In addition, customers can control Everest's new exterior zone lighting system via the touchscreen or the FordPass™ App, which means they don't have to park, work, camp or do anything in the dark.

Rugged outside, a sanctuary within

Designers put a lot of thought into the function and feel of the interior, taking inspiration from modern homes and bringing in plush materials, premium finishes, and ambient lighting, all in areas where customers can appreciate them the best.

The Everest's sense of spaciousness is amplified by the full-width coast-to-coast instrument panel and centre console with dual cupholder recesses, plus dash-mounted pop out' cupholders for front-seat occupants. High-series models are equipped with integrated wireless charging, a svelte new leather-trimmed e-Shifter and an electric parking brake.

The new and proven engine line-up

Everest customers told Ford that they wanted more power and torque for towing, heavy loads and off-roading. Hence, the team selected Ford's proven 3.0L turbodiesel V6 engine and refined it for the Everest. Depending on the market, it is one of three turbodiesel engine options available at launch.

The new 3.0L turbodiesel V6 spearheads the line-up. Next-gen Everest gives customers a choice of engines to suit their lifestyles, including Ford's proven Single-Turbo and the Bi-Turbo 2.0 inline four-cylinder diesel and a 2.3L EcoBoost petrol engine.

At CMH Kempster Ford Randburg, we care about you and your family. We pride ourselves on our Ford products and their ability to make your life on the road safe and enjoyable every time.

DO’S AND DON’TS WHEN DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

Do's and Don’ts when driving your vehicle:

Are you putting your car at unnecessary risk because of bad driving habits?

Without realizing it, you may be causing damage to your car by doing seemingly insignificant things.

CMH Ford Ballito have compiled a list of Eight dos and don’ts while driving your precious baby.

Vehicles are often among your most valuable possessions and are the ones on which you rely most heavily. Taking proper care of it will ensure it lasts as long as possible.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T drive your vehicle until your fuel is empty.

When you leave your fuel tank near empty, fuel draws from the bottom of the tank, which has dirt, impurities, and residuals. The fuel pump absorbing these when the fuel level is low will shorten the life of your fuel system.

DO: Before the warning light illuminates, fill up the tank with fuel

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T rev your Engine:

The abrupt temperature changes that occur when you rev your car when it's cold could damage components.

DO: Allow the oil to warm up and distribute throughout the engine for a few minutes after your car has started.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T just change gears from reverse to drive, as the sudden change in direction can cause damage to your vehicle.

DO: Let the vehicle come to a complete stop before switching gears.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T overload your boot as this causes damage to your vehicle’s transmission, tyres, steering and suspension and can also cause blowouts.

DO: Take into consideration what the weight limit is and recommended tyre pressure.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T Ride the clutch as this shortens the life of the clutch plate.

DO: Take your foot off the clutch after changing gears and leave the car in neutral with the handbrake on until you’re ready to move from a hill start.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T rest your foot on the brake pedal. It causes your brake to overheat and wear out.

DO: Switch to a lower gear and maintain a safe driving distance.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T ignore warning lights or if you hear something strange coming from your vehicle.

DO: Familiarise yourself with the most serious lights by reading your owner’s manual and having the problem attended to right away.

1. CMH Ford Ballito says DON’T ignore your tires because you could experience a flat or blowout. Your tires will wear unevenly and wear out faster, and you won’t get the fuel efficiency you deserve.

DO: Check your tires as often as you check your oil and rotate your tires at least twice a year.

CMH Ford Ballito offers an array of auto repair services you can trust. If you suspect that your vehicle has a problem, or if you need routine maintenance, don't hesitate to call us on 0877239278

THE ALL-POWERFUL MUSTANG

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

THE ALL-POWERFUL MUSTANG

The Ford Mustang has been around for nearly 60 years, kicking off in 1964 and continuing nonstop. The sixth era made its debut in 2015 and has just gotten better over time, with progressed performance and handling, better tech and up to date styling. Last year's big news was the reintroduction of the Mustang Mach 1; the 2022 Ford Mustang gets a few minor updates. The noticeable changes are a trio of visual packages and a loss of 10 horsepower and 10 lb-ft of torque for the V8 engine in each of the GT and Mach 1 variants. Ford has a justifiable reason for this as it looks to reduce the number of harmful gas emissions.

How does the Mustang drive? The Mustang GT is impressively quick thanks to its gutsy V8. The brakes complement the vehicle, giving you a great deal of confidence to brake in difficult situations.

How cosy is the Mustang? You may be at ease for hours in the Mustang, that's quite a feat considering how performance-oriented it is. The seats provide incredible support, and the cabin is generally very quiet. The V8 sounds amazing, and that's exactly what you'll need to pay attention to the beauty of the vehicle.

The temperature controls are front and centre, and well-positioned vents distribute cool air to the front passengers. The automatic weather management system rarely needs to be adjusted once it is set. The ventilated seats are quick to cool you down on warm days and keep you cosy on long drives to ensure maximum satisfaction.

How’s the technology? Muscle vehicles do not necessarily scream "high-tech," but the Mustang gets full marks for the availability of newer features. Ford's Sync interface is the pinnacle of voice controls, an 8-inch touchscreen, and Apple CarPlay or Android integration.

The superior protection features (blind-spot tracking, lane assist, among others) are properly tuned to prevent fake alarms. The forward collision warning is as it should be, startling. The adaptive cruise management executes with easy inputs and maintains the set speeds on steep downhills.

The Verdict

This high-performance, powerful, and thrilling ride is basically screaming your name. This vehicle not only offers you all the features of a modern car but still gives you that vintage muscle feel which allows timeless satisfaction.

THE GREAT STORMTRAK IS COMING SOON AT CMH STEYNS FORD

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

Limited-Edition Ranger Stormtrak confirmed for local introduction

After the remarkable victory of the limited-edition Ford Ranger Thunder in 2020, Ford South Africa is bringing you yet another unique and appealing iteration based on the upmarket Wildtrak – the Ranger Stormtrak – towards the end of this year.

Ford Ranger Stormtrak and Raptor

“The Ranger Thunder was exceptionally well received when we launched it a year ago, proving unequivocally that there is strong demand for range-topping models that offer something different from the norm,” says Doreen Mashinini, General Manager for Marketing at Ford South Africa.

We are excited to bring you this Limited innovation by Ford and your one dealer stop CMH Steyn’s Ford will have it in stock.

Let us take you through what exactly you can expect from the Stormtrak:

In Stormtrak guise, the Ranger gains several muscular, attention-grabbing design elements, including a striking black mesh grille with red inserts, a black insert in the lower section of the front bumper, black decals for the bonnet and doors, black roof rails and of course some 18-inch alloy wheels finished in gloss black.

Ford Ranger Stormtrak Rear

It further stands out with the Stormtrak logos on the lower sections of the front doors, as well as on the rear tailgate.

It’s not just on the styling front that the Ranger Stormtrak does very well as your everyday vehicle. Practicality has been elevated thanks to the standard fitment of Ford’s new Power Roller Shutter for the rear load compartment. This ensures that goods can be safely secured in the loadbed with ease, complemented by the tailgate locking mechanism being integrated into the vehicle’s central locking system.

Carrying items is made easy as the Stormtrak comes with an adjustable bed divider kit Compartmentalise the cargo area according to the size of the items being carried – that prevents goods from shifting around when driving.

Boot space

Step into the cabin and you are greeted with sumptuous luxury and attention to detail – including illuminated front scuff plates. This theme is continued on the premium leather seats which incorporate striking red stitching, as well as the Stormtrak logo taking pride of place on the front seat backrests. Red stitching is used throughout the leather-trimmed cabin, including on the soft-touch dashboard upper, steering wheel and gear lever, further enhancing the sporty ambience.

Interior

As with the Ranger Wildtrak, the premium level of standard features is exceptional, including the SYNC®3 infotainment system with embedded navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as FordPass functionality that allows the owner to remotely access numerous vehicles features from their phone – such as remote and scheduled starts to either cool or heat the cabin.

On the safety side of the Stormtrak is an extensive list of innovative active and passive safety systems and driver aids, such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Forward Collision Alert, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Keeping Alert and Lane Keeping Aid, Driver Alert System, and Semi-Automatic Parallel Park Assist that comes standard.

In line with its range-topping status, the Ranger Stormtrak is powered by Ford’s 2.0-litre Bi-Turbo engine which produces 157kW and 500Nm. It is paired with an advanced 10-speed automatic transmission that delivers seamless shifts matched to the responsive performance and impressive fuel economy. The Ranger’s towing capacity of 3 500kg remains unchanged, along with the 800mm water wading depth and 230mm ground clearance.

Pricing for the Ranger Stormtrak will be announced closer to launch.

The Stormtrak will be available at CMH STEYN'S FORD. Book yours today.

Ford Umhlanga goes Green !!!

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

As Spring arrived, we at Ford Umhlanga made the commitment to go green to put a positive impact on the environment. As a result, we decided that all employees across all departments would participate. Due to the pollution in the air, our surrounding area needed an Eco-Friendly boost to assist our environment, so we decided to give back to nature.

CMH Ford Umhlanga goes green

Researching what plant would be the best fit, we came across the Spekboom, a succulent plant native to South Africa. Among its many Spekboom facts is that it is indigenous to the province of the Eastern Cape and is revered as a miracle plant. Bright green, small-leaved plant found in Southern Africa looks ordinary, but don't be fooled - it is very special!

Below are a few of the many fascinating facts about this plant.

#1 Leaves are Edible

The taste of spekboom leaf is pleasant but changes throughout the day as the sun rises and sets. During the day leaves have an acid flavour and become less acidic towards the evening. The delicious greenery is heavily browsed by game and a firm favourite of several wild animals, especially elephants!

#2 Communities Use Spekboom Leaves for Their Medicinal Values

The leaves are used medicinally and in traditional home construction.

#3 It Helps to Fight Climate Change and Air Pollution

Spekboom

This plant helps to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by acting as a carbon sponge, improving the quality of the air we breathe. More specifically, spekboom can absorb between four and ten tonnes of carbon per hectare. This incredible tree uses carbon to make plant tissue and produce oxygen. According to The Spekboom Foundation, spekboom’s capacity to offset harmful carbon emissions is compared to that of moist, subtropical forests. This remarkable plant is unique in that it stores solar energy to perform photosynthesis at night. This makes a spekboom thicket 10 times more effective per hectare at carbon fixing than any tropical rainforest.”

For the staff at Ford Umhlanga, this was a beautiful and memorable day as each employee got the opportunity to plant their very own Spekboom at the front entrance of our dealership. This definitely was motivating to everyone involved and really touched a special place in their heart knowing that we played our part in the fight against global warming by simply planting a spekboom plant at our dealership!!!

Customer Service is what we do best

November 8, 2023 By Rokkit

Today, customer service is becoming one of the most important aspects of marketing. Over-delivering in service is the most valuable thing any business can do.

Reception

When arriving at our dealership you will be greeted by a friendly security guard who will show you where to park and assist you with the start of the checking in-process by following strict COVID-19 protocol. You will then be greeted by one of our very friendly and trained service advisors, who will be your contact and will keep you fully informed about what is going on with your vehicle.

Service Mechanics

Our brand-specific technicians will be responsible for ensuring that your vehicle gets service and is in good health for you and your family’s safety. Each service includes a mandatory safety check that includes checking the condition of the brake pads, the condition and pressure of tyres including the spare, shocks, wiper blades, the cooling system, all fluid levels, the battery, and the condition of all lights.

Mr Andrew Van Der Walt, who recently brought his Ford to the service department, was impressed with the work performed on his vehicle and the excellent service he received from the staff. Mr Van Der Walt wrote into our dealership in which he had this to say:
