Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) (Front radar)
Detecting vehicle
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab, or
when the vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance, additional spe-
cial attention is required. Forward Colli-
sion-Avoidance Assist may not be able
to detect the cargo extending from the
vehicle. In these instances, you must
maintain a safe braking distance from
the rearmost object, and if necessary,
steer your vehicle and depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain distance.
WARNING
僅 When you are towing a trailer or
another vehicle, we recommend that
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist is
turned off due to safety reasons.
僅 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
may operate if objects that are similar
in shape or characteristics to vehicles
are detected.
僅 Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
does not operate on bicycles, motor-
cycles, or smaller wheeled objects,
such as luggage bags, shopping carts,
or strollers.
