New Ford App Lets You Start Your Car Remotely

Along with the new Escape, Ford is releasing a new feature that will make getting into your car on a cold winter’s morning that bit easier.

Entitled the Ford SYNC Connect, Ford is debuting a new app that will allow users to connect with their 2017 Ford Escape using their mobile device, without even being inside the vehicle.

Using the app, Escape owners will be able to start the car’s engine, lock and unlock the car, and even check the car’s fuel, battery, and oil levels.

While this app will only be available for the Ford Escape, it will likely be the start of a lot more of these sorts of tech developments for everyday vehicles.

DISMISS YOUR TICKET OR WE PAY IT
UP TO $250

We're so confident that you can dismiss your ticket with our service that we'll give you up to $250 if you don't.

What do we mean by 'up to' ?

We've been doing this a long time (since 2000 to be exact), so we know your ticket will be dismissed. But, in the unlikely event that it isn't, we'd like to contribute some cash toward it, up to a value of $250.

Basically, if your ticket is $250 or less, we'll give you the full value of your ticket, if it's more than that, we'll give you $250.

It's really that simple.
