2012 Lincoln MKT : Performance

On the road, getting too close is frowned upon. To help you keep your distance, activate the available adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support and let the 2012 Lincoln MKT maintain the pace. This radar-based system is designed to maintain one of three preset gaps between Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake SupportMKT and the vehicle in front of it. When sensors detect that a vehicle ahead is slowing, MKT slows down. When sensors detect the gap widening, you return to your preset speed.

Even while commuting, the system adjusts the gap as vehicles brake, accelerate, and change lanes around you. Whether adaptive cruise control is activated or not, collision warning with brake support is always active and ready to respond. If sensors detect a potential rear-end collision with the vehicle in front of you, collision warning chimes and flashes a red warning light on the windshield to get your attention. If you fail to respond immediately, brake support pre-charges brake pressure so you get full brake power when applied. It's just one more way Lincoln MKT stays on the lookout for you.
