FordPass Connect Arrives in South Africa

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

FordPass Connect is seamlessly paired with the existing vehicle infotainment systems – including the entry-level SYNC®1 system on XL models through to the mid-level Connected Touch Radio (CTR) eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system that incorporates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, or the fully-featured SYNC®3 with Navigation that is fitted as standard on the high-series models.

FordPass: connectivity at your fingertips

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, tyre pressures 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 commence 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 the 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 vehicle regardless of whether they are there or not.

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 where 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, and Ford Protect Plan. The owner can also check the upcoming service intervals and schedule a service at their preferred dealer with the app linking to the www.myfordjourney.co.za website the facilitate this process.

Roadside Assistance:

Throughout the FordPass app, customers have instant access to call 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, digital Owner’s Manual, and an Alerts Guide addressing a number of 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-on-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 new technology, performance and safety by wirelessly delivering new features and quality enhancements – without requiring a visit to a dealer or service centre.

Visit us at CMH Ford Randburg and ask one of our friendly Sales Executives what FordPass Connect can do for you and your new Ford Ranger.

The MORE You know the further you go, and that’s why we at CMH Kempster Ford Hatfield believe sharing how amazing the All New Ford Figo Freestyle is, will give you a better perspective when you book your test drive soon. Let’s start with what makes this freestyle different from its sisters Figo Ambiente, Figo Trend, Figo Blu etc. Definitely its look and feel both on the interior and exterior is the first noticeable difference. The Figo freestyle could be classified as a competent “crossover” given its increased 16mm higher ground clearance and bolder exterior. This added ground clearance is not just for show, as it gives the Figo Freestyle the ability to climb kerbs and makes gravel roads a breeze to manoeuvre through. With this model being a tad bit higher, it also means your visibility is increased thus giving you a better sitting position. The Ford Figo freestyle has bigger wheels, roof rails for added practicality and skid plates which protect the vehicle’s underside. The standard Ford Figo produces 88Kw with the Ford Figo freestyle topping it with an extra 3KW at 91Kw/150Nm and drives front wheels with its 5 speed manual gearbox. Our customers at CMH Kempster Ford Hatfield are often impressed with the fuel efficiency on our Ford Figos, and the Ford Figo freestyle is no different. Ford’s SYNC Infotainment and connectivity package comes standard in the Titanium model. Making it perfect for the tech-obsessed generation whilst offering Android Auto and Car Play compatibility, Bluetooth, audio streaming and a pair of USB Ports that are illuminated. The SYNC touch Screen has great graphics with an intuitive menu system. Once your phone is plugged in you can enjoy navigation services like Google Maps. Not convinced yet? Visit CMH Kempster Ford Hatfield today at 434 Jan Shoba Street Hatfield in Pretoria to book your test drive and experience this model for yourself.

We recently had the opportunity to invite our clients once again to a 4×4 off-road training day held at Killarney 4x4 Trail. Our clients get to enjoy the day out with us and learn more about their 4×4 vehicles. The practical knowledge and exposure to suitable terrain and to learn more always proves to be a huge hit with our clients.

The day started with a drive through Shongweni Valley, the views and sounds of the mountains were incredible. We all met at the Killarney Trail at 08:00 am our instructor, Travis, started by introducing our customers to a basic 4×4 track day, he showed us the basics of 4×4 driving and the controls on how to recover the vehicle safely, should they get stuck. We then went up and down some steep hills and over a few challenging obstacles.

More 4×4 Challenges

The second part of the course involved the ’Slippery’ hill with the wet terrain it sure proved to be a test for our learning clients, which they all passed with flying colours. Our day progressed to the challenge on the two railings, where you must very carefully line up your wheels perfectly on the two rails and drive from one side to the other without sliding off. This proved very difficult, but all the customers managed to achieve this obstacle with absolute confidence.

After the exhilarating experience on the tracks, everybody came back on-site and had pre-packed picnic baskets as no braais / large gatherings are permissible due to COVID-19. Our clients had the pleasure of using the trail for the entire day and some clients were more than eager to go back out alone in the mountains. The aim of the day? For our clients to learn as much as they can about their vehicles and leaving the day with pride and confidence in their 4X4. We would highly recommend this to all that have 4×4 vehicles, this was such an adventurous and fun-filled day out with our family and loyal customers.
