In your pre collision assist settings, is distance indication toggled on?
For daily driving and forest road cruising, I turn this setting off. The beeps and warnings drive me nuts going through a drive through or when going by trees on the edge of a two track forest road. I wish there was a separate setting to toggle off side impact or sensitivity.

I've had a similar experience.

In our previous Ford Explorer Sport 2017, the forward collision alert was quite sensitive. If I was closing on the vehicle in front it alerted. I think this scenario happens to all of us, checking a mirror to merge left and at the same time the car in front slows. Explorer would alert early.

I've not had this occur in the Ranger yet. The only time the alert has fired is in parking garages as I crest the ramp and it sees parked cars immediately in front.
