Some information may be stored during regular
operations to facilitate repair of detected malfunctions;
other information is stored only in a crash event by
computer systems, such as those commonly called event
data recorders (EDR).
In a crash event, computer systems, such as the Airbag
Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) in your vehicle
may record information about the condition of the vehicle
and how it was operated, such as data related to engine
speed, brake application, throttle position, vehicle speed,
safety belt usage, airbag readiness, airbag performance,
and the severity of a collision. This information has been
used to improve vehicle crash performance and may be
used to improve crash performance of future vehicles and
driving safety. Unlike the data recorders on many
airplanes, these on-board systems do not record sounds,
such as conversation of vehicle occupants.
To read this information, special equipment is needed
and access to the vehicle or the device that stores the
data is required. Saab will not access information about
a crash event or share it with others other than:
•
with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if the vehicle
is leased, with the consent of the lessee,
•
in response to an official request of police or similar
government office,
•
as part of Saab’s defense of litigation through the
discovery process, or
•
as required by law.
In addition, once Saab collects or receives data,
Saab may:
•
use the data for Saab research needs,
•
make it available for research where appropriate
confidentiality is to be maintained and need is
shown, or
•
share summary data which is not tied to a specific
vehicle with non-Saab organizations for research
purposes.
Others, such as law enforcement, may have access to
the special equipment that can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the device that stores
the data.
If your vehicle is equipped with OnStar
®
, please check
the OnStar
®
subscription service agreement or manual
for information on its operations and data collection.
