  Cruise Control Distance Sensor Bracket, Bracket

• Description:

  This genuine Ford distance sensor bracket, LJ6Z-14C022-A, is the mounting bracket that secures the adaptive cruise control distance sensor module behind the front fascia on 2020-2025 Ford Escape models equipped with adaptive cruise control or pre-collision assist. The bracket positions and aligns the radar-based distance sensor to the manufacturer's specified aiming angle so the driver-assist system can accurately track the distance and closing speed of vehicles ahead. A cracked, bent, or broken bracket is a common result of a low-speed front-end impact and typically triggers an adaptive cruise control fault message, a pre-collision assist warning light, disabled forward-collision alerts, or a service message indicating the distance sensor is out of alignment or blocked. Because the sensor's aim depends on the bracket holding it in the exact factory position, a damaged or warped bracket can cause false alerts, missed detections, or a system that refuses to activate until the underlying mounting issue is corrected. Ford's catalog lists this part simply as the Distance Sensor Bracket, and replacement is a common step after any front bumper cover repair or collision repair on this platform, even when the sensor itself tests fully functional. Installation involves removing the front fascia or grille assembly for access, transferring or replacing the radar sensor onto the new bracket, and performing the required static or dynamic sensor calibration/aiming procedure afterward so the adaptive cruise and pre-collision systems read accurately. Skipping the calibration step after bracket replacement can leave the safety system misaligned even though the bracket itself is properly installed. This is a direct-fit replacement bracket for the factory-installed distance sensor mount on qualifying Escape models.
