Looking at Willy's 2021 must have Advanced Safety and Safety Packages (my 1st Jeep)

[BillWal]

This will be my 1st Jeep.
Anyone know if you can add these Two packages/features to the Willy's 2021? Dealer couldn't find it yesterday - wondering if it's not possible?

Package 1) Safety Group
ParkSense® Rear Park-Assist System
Blind-Spot and Cross-Path Detection

Package 2) Advanced Safety Group
Enhanced Adaptive Cruise Control
Advanced Brake Assist
Full Speed Forward Collision Warn Plus

if not possible may go with Sahara or Rubicon. Thanks in advance

Welcome! It's definitely possible as I'm about to order a 21 Willys 4-door with both of those packages. Check out the order guides to see exactly what is available in each model and trim:

Yes, the Willys can get most of the options and tech that we want, but the sport version of it is just too limited in my opinion. Now we just need to get our order in and start the waiting.

Take care!

Don’t do the advanced safety. It’s a total hassle and scary dangerous.

We have it on our 2020 ram. Always have to turn it off. The auto braking has almost caused several accidents as street signs and guard rails in curves set it off. I’ll never trust the smart cruise control. It wrecks me nerves. But the auto braking is dangerous.

Admittedly, mine's triggered before when it shouldn't have, but I will say, if it's triggering that much on you, then you should take your truck to the dealer and make them fix it. Sounds like one of the sensors is probably way out of alignment or defective or something.

The Volvo I have now, as well as my previous BMW have/had the adaptive cruise control. I love it on interstate quality roads, but if I'm using it around town I ALWAYS brake before the automated braking kicks in, it just always seems to brake much later than I would. I have gotten so used to setting it and the car automatically slowing down to match the speed of the vehicle in front of me that it became a, "must have" on the JL. Now Automatic High Beams.., well those things are just a pain.

I rarely see the automatic high beams turn on. In fact, I claim it works the opposite of how you'd want it to work! if you have the automatic high beams option, you can't (to my knowledge) manually turn on the high beams. They're either off or auto (toggled by pushing back the high beams switch). Which is surprisingly stupid.

I could be wrong! I don't really need them so I've rarely touched them, but as I recall, if you push the stick towards the dash it just bounces back and tells you auto high beams are (enabled/disabled)

Well I’m trading in my 2019 Lexus RX on this Jeep (I’m about to order)and the auto braking is amazing. I use it to navigate dense weekend beach traffic for 2.5 hours flawlessly. Sad to hear Dodge doesn’t have the technology perfected.
