Thanks! Is this an option for certain trim levels?

I need to remember this when I see a shredded tire or something in the road I think is small enough to just drive over....
I wonder if the front cameras can sense non-trivial debris in the road and retract the air dam to avoid damage (ala' accident avoidance feature).

I’ve been trying to take this thing off my truck, any tips? It’s not like the 18-20 where it’s just held on by bolts

I hung a GoPro on the tow hook and captured the front dam in action. Seems to deploy at about 45mph.

Thanks for that great video. With the winter roads around here , that’s going to function as a plow. It’s possible to drive at more than 45 even on snowy roads. If a vehicle ahead drops a chunk of snow or ice from the wheel well, the dam will hit It.

I don’t suppose there is a way to prevent the air damn from deploying

In your settings I think you can made it so it doesnt deploy.

why can I already hear the service tech saying “Ford doesn’t cover the active air dam from damage caused by road debris or pot holes” after all I live in Ohio. Smooth roads are not in our vocabulary. ?
