State Farm, Ford Partner on Telematics Offering

State Farm and Ford Motor Company have partnered to potentially reduce auto insurance costs by as much as 40 percent. Through State Farm’s Drive Safe & Save insurance discount program, Ford vehicles equipped with Ford SYNC would automatically report their mileage to State Farm via the Vehicle Health Report, a standard feature of SYNC, which has been available since the 2009 model year. The amount of savings would be determined by the number of miles driven.
