Issues with Lane Keep Assist?

[smithjo33]

Is anyone else experiencing issues with their Lane Keep Assist? I’m a week into my new 2021 Bronco Badlands (with High Package) and I don’t believe my Lane Keep assist is working. It is enabled and I’ve tried all settings. I do feel the initial steering rumbles when I first turn it on, but it doesn’t seem to do anything after that, including when I intentionally (safely) veer into the next lane to try it out. Is this a known issue or am I missing something on tue functionality?

I thought that's all it's supposed to do. Mine's the same. I disabled it, I don't need a rumble.

Believe there’s a difference between Lane Centering and Lane Keeping. Bronco does not Lane Center.

Edit: Just tested. Changed to alert and aid and high intensity. Left lane and nothing. No rumble at all. I don’t get it.

You have to pick assist of you want it to get you back in lane in your settings menu. There is alert and assist. They said it does not work nearly as well as my wife’s ‘20 blazer.

As mentioned the settings are in your sync4. I don't mean to insult, but I had to figure it out, the indicators on the dash [ ] helped me realize I had accidentally turned it off. The button next to cruise control is the on/off for lane keep. It will ding, vibrate, and gently move you back to your lane depending on how you have it setup.

Good to know, I might have to try it again with that enabled.

Also, those [] need to FIRST recognize the lane markings by turning GREEN before theyll assist you.
Also, if it does recognize the lane markings and it turns red (which means its engaging the steering) and you hold the wheel and keep off-center, lane keep will temporarily DISENGAGE and stop working on that side. Just a heads up...
Probably not mentioned in the manual anywhere, but this is how it's designed.

If your steering wheel rumbles then it’s not in the right mode. You have to go into the menu to turn it on where it would actually corrects the steering. Keep in mind… it’s only active at 40 mph and higher.

So I enabled assist and left alert disabled. Set sensitivity to medium then to high. IDK how it compares to other cars, but it was super weird at first watching it steer itself.

@JaxGtc thank you! Was apparently user error. I had been selecting options using the Sync4 interface, but wasn’t aware there was a separate manual button on the steering wheel needed to actually engage the Lane Keep functionality. It works just fine now. Thanks again!

Mine is certainly enabled and not working. I've been using this feature on my F-150s and other Fords for years without major issues. I turn it on and the green rounded rectangles are on but the car doesn't respond to it.
