Do Ford vehicles have headlight cleaning function?

Some Ford models are equipped with headlight cleaning function, such as the Kuga. The headlight cleaning system features a water outlet below the headlight, which can clean dust and dirt from the headlight at any time to ensure sufficient illumination. Taking the Ford Kuga as an example, it is a compact SUV launched by Ford. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 4524mm in length, 1838mm in width, and 1701mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2690mm. In terms of power, the Ford Kuga is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 245 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350 N·m, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
I know Ford vehicles quite well. Some high-end models do come equipped with headlight washers, such as the F-150 Platinum or the top trim of the Explorer. During rainy or snowy weather, it automatically sprays water to clean the lens, preventing dirt buildup that could affect nighttime visibility. To check if your car has this feature, look through the vehicle settings menu or refer to the user manual to confirm the model details, as Ford doesn’t offer it as standard across all trims—only on higher-end versions. I find this feature very practical, especially for long-distance driving or winter mud-splattered roads, since dirty headlights reduce visibility and increase risks. Just remember to check the nozzles periodically to avoid clogs, saving you repair costs. If your newly bought car doesn’t have this feature, no worries—manually wiping the headlights works fine too.
