Where is the Ford adaptive cruise control sensor located?

I recently purchased a new Ford F150 and was impressed to learn that the vehicle comes equipped with an adaptive cruise control sensor. I wanted to check out the sensor but I couldn’t find it on my car. Where is the adaptive cruise control sensor located?

Congratulations on your new car! Newer models of cars, like the
Ford F150
, are equipped with advanced safety features and driving aids, including adaptive cruise control.
Adaptive cruise control sensors are typically located on the front bumper of the car, while sensor cameras are located in the windshield. In these positions, the sensors can accurately detect the speed of oncoming cars.
With the ability to detect the speed of others, the cruise control can adjust the car’s speed to match the speed of traffic and stay a safe distance away from other cars.
If the road ahead is clear, the sensor will maintain the speed set by the driver. Keep in mind that if your vehicle is involved in a collision, you should check the sensors for damage.
To protect yourself from road accidents of all kinds, it’s important to have the right
