Forward Collision Warning — If Equipped

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) warns the driver of a

potential collision with the vehicle in front of you and

prompts the driver to take action in order to avoid the

collision.

FCW monitors the information from the forward looking

sensor as well as the Electronic Brake Controller (EBC),

wheel speed sensors, i.e., to calculate a probable rear-end

collision. When the system determines that a rear-end

collision is probable a warning message (both audible

and visual) will be displayed on the EVIC. When the

system determines a collision with the vehicle in front of

you is no longer probable, the warning message will be

deactivated.

NOTE: The minimum speed for FCW activation is

10 mph (16 km/h).

WARNING!

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to

avoid a collision on its own. The driver has the

responsibility to avoid a collision by controlling the

vehicle via braking and steering. Failure to follow

this warning could lead to serious injury or death.

Changing FCW Status

The FCW feature can be set to far, set to near or turned off

using the Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to “Uconnect

Touch™ Settings” in “Understanding Your Instrument

Panel” for further information. The FCW Status Off, Near

or Far will be displayed in the Uconnect Touch™ display.

The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting, this allows

the system to warn you of a possible collision with the

vehicle in front of you when you are farther away. This

gives you the most reaction time.
