Audible backup distance alert

[FXFord]

This 2025 Ranger Sport I got three weeks ago is my first Ranger. Unlike the F150s I've owned, this Ranger appears to have no audible backup alert (for the driver not pedestrian). That was possibly the single most useful alert the F150s ever had. A beep when the rear bumper gets reasonably close to an object and beeps faster the closer you get until a full solid beep means you're about to make contact. Where is that alert on the Ranger? The rear camera doesn't adequately replace an audible alert, in my opinion. I miss that feature and it's not mentioned in the paper or e-manual and I have a hard time trusting distance with the camera alone.

I know the 2024's have it, at least mine does as it beeps and also mutes the radio so you can hear the beeps. Your model might not be a high enough trim to have it. Mine's a Lariat FX4.
Does yours have the Advanced Driver Assistance System.

Does it have parking sensors on the front and rear bumpers? If so, it should have audible tone warnings for distance to an object

Maybe the sensors are turned off in settings???? I just turned off the setting that stops the truck when backing up. I almost got whiplash backing out of my driveway lol

Oh what did we do before all the technology took over? Lol... A large backup camera just isn't enough these days.

My 2024 Ranger sport has it.

My 24 XLT with FX4/Advanced Tow has audible notification.
