According to

Ford says this is necessary because pothole damage costs $3 billion a year, and up to $300 a car.

Jason Michener, a Ford engineer, reveals how the feature works in a public statement.

“The new Fusion V-6 Sport substantially reduces the harsh impact potholes often deliver. Our new pothole-mitigation technology works by actually detecting potholes and catching the car’s wheel before it has a chance to drop all the way into the pothole.”
