Ford F-150 Safety Ratings

The Ford F-150 Received Top Ratings Across the Board in Crashworthiness

You’ll want a truck designed to protect and serve. The 2021 Ford F-150 delivers with its strong structure and build, and the Ford F-150 safety ratings include ‘Good’ ratings across the board in crashworthiness, the highest marks the IIHS gives in that category.

From its very inception, Ford built the F-150 to endure. The fully boxed high-strength steel frame design is rigid enough to withstand potential impact but still manageable for your daily driving. This ride is also the only full-size pickup with a high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body. This is a truck you can count on in a crisis.

It’s details like these that earned the Ford F-150 top safety ratings in the following categories:

• Small overlap front and passenger sides
• Side test
• Roof strength
• Moderate overlap front
• Head and seat restraints

Should the unexpected occur, the F-150 has your back.

Ford F-150 Safety Ratings Include a Superior Rating for Crash Avoidance and Mitigation

So, now you know that the F-150 is dependable in the event of a crash. But could it potentially avoid a crash altogether? The IIHS gave the 2021 F-150 a ‘superior’ rating in both standard vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention systems, the highest rating available.

Standard AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ uses sensors to measure vehicle roll and turning rates. If necessary, this system will apply brakes to keep your truck steady and help you maintain control in a variety of conditions. Standard Curve Control makes it safer to go around a mountain bend or winding path.

If an accident occurs, standard Safety Canopy® side curtains airbags are made to potentially cushion the blow and lessen the severity of an accident, keeping you and your passengers safe in the event of a collision. Should you need to contact emergency personnel, standard SOS Post-Crash Alert System™ will have help on its way to you.

Select These Available Features for Next-Level Safety and Security

Not only does the 2021 Ford F-150 have safety features to help you feel secure behind the wheel, but there are optional technologies you can add on for further protection.
