EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)

• This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR

is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment

or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems

performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety

systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is

designed to record such data as:

•Howvarioussystemsinyourvehiclewereoperating.

• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened.

•Howfar(ifatall)thedriverwasdepressingtheacceleratorand/orbrakepedal.

•Howfastthevehiclewastraveling.

•Thesedatacanhelpprovideabetterunderstandingofthecircumstancesinwhich

crashes and injuries occur.

NOTE:

EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are

recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name,

gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforce-

ment, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identif ying data routinely

acquired during a crash investigation.

have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
