Assistance Systems for
Driving
If equipped, when driving the vehicle
in a forward gear, Forward Collision
Alert (FCA), Front Pedestrian Braking
(FPB), Lane Keep Assist (LKA), Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA), Night Vision
System, Lane Change Alert (LCA),
and/or Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) can help to avoid a crash or
reduce crash damage.
Forward Collision Alert
(FCA) System
The FCA system may help to avoid or
reduce the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a vehicle
ahead too quickly, FCA provides a red
flashing alert on the windshield and
rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat.
FCA also lights an amber visual alert
if following another vehicle much too
closely.
FCA detects vehicles within a distance
of approximately 60 m (197 ft) and
operates at speeds above 8 km/h
(5 mph). If the vehicle has Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), it can detect
vehicles to distances of approximately
110 m (360 ft) and operates at all
speeds. See
{
Warning
FCA is a warning system and does
not apply the brakes. When
approaching a slower-moving or
stopped vehicle ahead too rapidly,
or when following a vehicle too
closely, FCA may not provide a
warning with enough time to help
avoid a crash. It also may not
provide any warning at all. FCA
does not warn of pedestrians,
animals, signs, guardrails, bridges,
construction barrels, or other
objects. Be ready to take action and
apply the brakes. See
FCA can be disabled through vehicle
personalization. See

Detection Systems
