❄️ Conquering Winter Roads: Ford’s Winter Safety Features ❄️
Posted on December 16, 2025
Winter driving in Ontario can be unpredictable. Ford has long been a leader in winter-ready vehicle technology, offering advanced safety, traction, and comfort features designed to keep drivers confident in even the harshest conditions.
When it comes to choosing the right Ford vehicle — and keeping it performing at its best all winter long — Grimsby Ford stands out as the premier dealership in the region for both sales and service.
🚗 Intelligent AWD & 4WD Systems Built for Winter
Many Ford vehicles are equipped with Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) or Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) systems that continuously monitor road conditions and redistribute power to the wheels with the most traction. This helps maintain control when accelerating, cornering, or climbing hills in snow and ice.
At Grimsby Ford, the knowledgeable sales team takes the time to match customers with the right drivetrain for their driving needs, whether that’s commuting, towing, or navigating rural winter roads.
🧊 Snow Mode & Selectable Drive Modes
Ford’s Snow Mode and selectable drive modes are designed specifically for slippery conditions. These modes adjust throttle response, transmission behavior, and traction control to reduce wheel spin and improve stability on icy roads.
Grimsby Ford ensures customers fully understand how to use these features, offering hands-on explanations so drivers can feel confident using winter technology the moment they leave the lot.
🛞 Advanced Stability & Traction Control
Ford’s AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™, combined with ABS and traction control, helps drivers maintain stability by automatically correcting skids and loss of control — a critical safety advantage during winter storms.
Just as important as having these systems is keeping them properly maintained, which is where Grimsby Ford truly excels. Their factory-trained service technicians use genuine Ford parts and advanced diagnostic tools to ensure every safety system works exactly as designed — all winter long.
👀 Ford Co-Pilot360™: Extra Awareness When Winter Visibility Drops
Ford’s Co-Pilot360™ driver-assist technologies provide an added layer of confidence during winter driving, including:
- Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
- Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®)
- Lane-Keeping System
- Rear View Camera with available washer
These features are especially valuable when snowbanks, glare, and blowing snow reduce visibility. Grimsby Ford’s service department ensures these systems are properly calibrated and functioning, something that’s essential after windshield replacements or collision repairs.
❄️ Comfort Features That Support Safer Winter Driving
Staying comfortable behind the wheel helps drivers stay focused. Ford vehicles offer winter-friendly features such as:
- Heated seats and heated steering wheels
- QuickClear™ heated windshields and mirrors
- Remote start through the FordPass™ app
Grimsby Ford offers seasonal service packages, winter tire installations, and remote-start solutions — making it easy for customers to prepare their vehicles for cold weather in one convenient location.
🔌 Ford EVs Built for Cold Canadian Winters
Ford electric vehicles like the Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning include battery thermal management and pre-conditioning features designed for cold climates. Grimsby Ford is a regional leader in EV knowledge, sales, and certified service, helping customers maximize winter range and performance through proper charging and vehicle setup.
⭐ Grimsby Ford Is the Best Choice in the Region
