Intelligent AWD/4WD

This video will explain how the Intelligent AWD and 4WD system on your vehicle can help you confidently maneuver over a variety of challenging road conditions. Plus, it will explain how the Intelligent Terrain Management System can be used depending on the type of road surfaces you encounter.

The Intelligent AWD system definitely is helpful in the snow

My awd system in my MKZ is great during acceleration, but while turning, it’s rear wheel heavy. I fishtail constantly. The low profile tires are also a nightmare in snow. The PTU should also be serviced every 30k miles. My MKZ doesn’t have a drain plug on the PTU, so you have to use a suction device. If anyone at Ford reads this, and you have the power to do so, I would love a GT350r. Hook me up. Haha

So is Intelligent 4WD on all the time, similar to an AWD system? Or do you have to manually switch from RWD to 4WD(on a new Explorer for example) when you need it like a traditional 4WD system?

I own a Ford Edge with “intelligent awd.” Got stuck in 8” of snow and couldn’t get out. Had to call AAA for help. They had to tow me out. Paid $65. Ford system Doesn’t work.
