For Safety Connect subscribers, if the SRS airbags deploy or in the event of a
●
severe rear-end collision, the system is designed to send an emergency call to
the response center, notifying them of the vehicle' s location (without needing to
push the "SOS" button) and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants
to ascertain the level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants
are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats the call as an emer-
gency and helps to dispatch the necessary emergency services. (P. 583)
