Ford has added a new feature to its marquee GPS system with the 911 Assist mode which automatically dials 911 in case of an accident. The 911 Assist mode automatically dispatches a distress call and provides emergency dispatchers an approximate on the location of the said emergency.
Among the Ford vehicles that come with the safety up level include the 2011 Ford and Lincoln models. The new 911 Assist mode comes with approved accuracy, thanks mainly to the dedicated on-board GPS module. Ford vehicle owners simply need a Bluetooth equipped cellular phone to put the whole thing to work. The whole Sync system is subscription free.
