providing visual and audible alerts under some imminent collision conditions.
Forward Collision Alert

illuminates in green on the instrument cluster when a vehicle

ahead too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too
quickly, the system flashes a visual alert on the windshield and
sounds an audible tone.

signal, the system flashes a visual alert and sounds an audible tone. The system operates
