Leesburg, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/20/2012 -- Key Scales Ford is proud to offer their Florida customers high quality and reliable used cars as a Ford Certified Pre-Owned dealer. Each vehicle in Key Scales Ford's inventory of certified pre-owned cars has endured rigorous tests to ensure quality and come with added bonuses, such as special warranties.

Not all Ford cars can be given the title of "Certified Pre-Owned." First, to be considered, a vehicle must be less than 6 model years old and have less than 80,000 miles on the odometer. When a used Ford meets both of these requirements, a vehicle history report is completed by an independent third party to check for things such as fire damage, odometer issues, accident history, and more. The vehicle will then undergo the rest of the rigorous 172-point inspection with trained technicians checking everything from the engine to the clock. Used Fords that pass each of these steps will then receive the Certified Pre-Owned seal of approval.

Once a used car earns the title of Certified Pre-Owned Ford, the added benefits for consumers kick in. The vehicle will come with a Ford powertrain warranty for 7 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, and a Ford limited warranty for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. CPO customers also receive 24/7 roadside assistance.

Key Scales Ford shows off the benefits of Ford’s MyKey system to teenagers and parents at their Ocala, Florida area dealership.

Leesburg, FL -- (SBWIRE) --11/16/2011 -- One of the many available options that help set Ford vehicles apart is MyKey, a system that helps keep an eye on teen drivers when parents are not around to do so themselves. MyKey is available on several Ford vehicles, and Ocala area dealer Key Scales Ford is showing off the benefits of the technology to central Florida customers.

MyKey encourages teens to drive more safely and responsibly through limitations set by the system. When a teen driver is behind the wheel, MyKey will set a top speed of just 80 miles per hour to discourage excessive speeds and the maximum volume on the audio system will be limited to just 45%. The beltminder warning will also continue to chime until the driver and passengers' seatbelts are fastened.

Preventative measures are also in place when the technology is in use. While the low fuel light comes on at around 50 miles to empty on most Ford vehicles, with MyKey the light will turn on when only 75 miles are left in the tank. Ford's newest addition, a do not disturb feature, turns off a teenager's cell phone while they are driving so that text messages are saved and calls go straight to voicemail. The driver will still be able to make outgoing calls through the Ford SYNC system when this technology is also in use on the vehicle.

Ford's MyKey technology is widely available on the 2012 Ford lineup. The 2012 Edge, Escape, Expedition, Explorer, Flex, Focus, Fusion, Mustang, Super Duty, and Taurus are all compatible with the system.

Leesburg, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/05/2011 -- The Ford Escape is one of the most popular small SUVs, and one of the best selling cars around. For the 2012 model year, the Escape is back, with all of the features consumers love, along with some new technologies. The 2012 Escape is now available at Key Scales Ford near Ocala, FL.

Key Scales Ford confirms that Ford is now offering a free trial of Operator Assist for SYNC users. Operator Assist connects users with a live operator to receive directions and business locations.

Leesburg, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/15/2011 -- Ford is offering a free trial of live operator assistance for SYNC services, Key Scales Ford confirms. Operator Assist allows customers to choose to connect with a live person to obtain information, specifically directions.

Ford decided to release Operator Assist to meet the higher level of connectivity current users requested. Currently, the main focus for the live operators is to provide directions or help drivers locate a business when requested, which make up about 70 percent of all calls SYNC services receive. The new feature is currently in beta testing, and is being offered to registered SYNC service users. Since Operator Assist will use GPS technology and existing vehicle sensors, no additional hardware or software is required for the system to work.

To activate Operator Assist, a driver must simply state "Operator" at any time during an interaction between SYNC and the user. Ford hopes that the new technology will offer additional assistance when the computer does not understand a request from the user. When the operator assists with directions to an address, the directions will be sent directly to the vehicle, who will then guide the driver. When the system is assisting with a business search, the user has the option between receiving turn-by-turn directions, be directly connected to the business by phone, or receive a text message with the businesses name, address, and phone number.

If Operator Assist receives positive feedback, Ford will add the feature permanently. SYNC systems are currently available on new Ford models at Key Scales Ford in Leesburg, FL. For more information about the SYNC system, visit Key Scales Ford, http://keyscalesford.com.

Key Scales Ford in Ocala is proud to announce available rear inflatable seat belts on 2011 Ford Explorer and the upcoming availability of them on other Ford models next summer.

Leesburg, Florida -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/02/2011 -- Rear inflatable seat belts are currently available as an option on the 2011 Ford Explorer at Key Scales Ford near Orlando, FL. These revolutionary seat belts have won many awards in the automotive industry including a gold medal at the 2011 Edison Best New Product Awards.

The rear inflatable seat belts have been such a hit on the new Ford Explorer that Ford has decided to expand their availability to other Ford models, including the Ford Flex, sometime next summer. The rear inflatable seat belts are designed to reduce head, neck and chest injuries in rear-seat occupants in the event of a crash. The seat belts protect the passengers in two key ways.

First, when the belt inflates in a front or side crash, their increased diameter helps to better hold passengers in the proper seating positions. Second, the inflated belts also spread crash-force energy across significantly more of an occupant's torso to decrease injury risk and increase head and neck support.

Ford's decision to expand the rollout of this technology is "another example of Ford leading the way to enhance vehicle safety for our customers," according to Sue Cischke, Ford group VP of Sustainability, Environment and Safety Engineering.

The addition of the inflatable rear seat belts to the Flex and other Ford models builds on the Top Safety Pick ratings the vehicle earned from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety. Ford plans to continue expanding the use of inflatable seat belts after launching them on the Explorer and the Flex.

If you are interested in learning more about the rear inflatable seat belts or the new Ford Explorer visit your local Ocala Ford dealer, Key Scales Ford. Their friendly staff will help you find the perfect Ford model for you.

The 2012 Ford Focus earned the Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The 2012 Ford Focus is now available at Key Scales Ford.

Leesburg, FL -- (SBWIRE) --06/09/2011 -- The 2012 Ford Focus joined 11 other Ford vehicles in receiving the Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). To earn the Top Safety Pick award, a vehicle must receive a rating of "good" in front, rear, and side impact protection and have electronic stability control and earn a good rating in roof strength.

The 2012 Ford Focus, which is now available at Key Scales Ford in Leesburg, FL, earned a maximum five-star overall safety rating in its tests. The 2012 Ford Focus is made of a strong, stiff, and lightweight steel that makes use of advanced high-strength steels and techniques to minimize body weight. It also improves the vehicle's dynamics and delivers enhanced crash performance. Fifty-five percent of its body is made up of high-strength steel, and 31 percent is ultra-tough boron steel. That is more than any other Ford built to date. Gunnar Herrmann, Global C Car vehicle line director said, "We were committed from the beginning with the new Focus to design and engineer a vehicle that leads the way both in terms of technology and safety. The inherent strength of the new Focus is the structural rigidity of the body and its extensive use of high-strength steels."

Many safety features also come standard on the 2012 Focus. It features an advanced restraint system with innovative next-generation airbags that offer enhanced chest protection.

The new airbag has a new curved-shape tether system that pulls in the lower section to create a pocket to lessen the impact of the airbag on the driver's chest and ribs in frontal crashes. Other standard safety features include dual-stage front airbags, front-seat side-impact airbags, Safety Canopy side-curtain airbags (first and second row), AdvanceTrac Electronic Stability Control, BeltMinder front safety belt reminder, SecuriLock passive anti-theft system, LATCH lower anchors and tether anchors for child safety seats, SOS Post-Crash Alert System, and tire pressure monitoring system.

The Focus also has a slew of features for the interior including manual climate control, air filtration system, full-floor center console with storage, rare coat hooks, power door locks, front door storage bins, tilt and telescoping steering wheel, and power front windows with one-touch down. The entertainment system includes an AM/FM single-disc CD player, MP3 capable with four speakers, audio input jack, and speed sensitive volume control. The seating includes cloth front bucket seats with four-way manual driver's seat, two-way manual passenger seat, two-way head restraints, and a folding rear bench seat with three removable head restraints.
