why no snow chains in the accessories list? - Ford Forums

Given the availability of ski carriers etc I would have thought chains would be offered too.

Can anyone recommend something?

Good question! I wonder if having only 2 chains on would confuse the stability control? Actually it would probably have to have a program for chains, the normal settings wouldn't be much use.

Also another potential problem is clearance around the front wheel.

Hopefully Ford have it sorted out in time for next years ski season, eh?

Yes there is an approved snow chain. I'll get the details on Monday if no one posts info prior to then. They can only be fitted to rear wheels.
