Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitigation — If
Equipped
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitiga-
tion provides the driver with audible warnings, visual warn-
ings (within the instrument cluster display), and may apply
a brake jerk to warn the driver when it detects a potential
frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking are
intended to provide the driver with enough time to react,
avoid or mitigate the potential collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking
sensors as well as the Electronic Brake Controller (EBC), to
calculate the probability of a forward collision. When the
system determines that a forward collision is probable, the
driver will be provided with audible and visual warnings
and may provide a brake jerk warning.
If the driver does not take action based upon these progres-
sive warnings, then the system will provide a limited level of
active braking to help slow the vehicle and mitigate the
potential forward collision. If the driver reacts to the warn-
ings by braking and the system determines that the driver
intends to avoid the collision by braking but has not applied
sufficient brake force, the system will compensate and
provide additional brake force as required.
If a Forward Collision Warning with Mitigation event begins
at a speed below 26 mph (42 km/h), the system may provide
the maximum braking possible to mitigate the potential
forward collision. If the Forward Collision Warning with
Mitigation event stops the vehicle completely, the system
will hold the vehicle at standstill for two seconds and then
release the brakes.
