Forward Collision Alert

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

With input from the frontview camera module and front short and long range radar modules, the active safety control module evaluates collision threats in the vehicle's forward path and alerts the driver of a potential collision. Alerts will only be possible if the system has detected a vehicle ahead and turned on the green vehicle ahead indicator. The active safety control module will send a command via serial data to turn on the forward collision alert telltale when approaching a vehicle directly ahead too quickly. The active safety control module will also send a command via serial data to pulse the driver seat (if equipped and enabled) or create a beeping noise through the speakers when approaching a vehicle directly ahead too quickly.
