Event Data Recorders
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, suc\
h as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understa\
nding 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 sec\
onds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
•
How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
•
Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fasten\
ed;
•
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or b\
rake pedal;
and,
•
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances \
in which 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 unde\
r normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired\
during a
crash investigation.
T

o read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and acces\
s to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties
such as law enforcement that have the special equipment can read the inf\
ormation if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. The data belong to the ve\
hicle owner
and may not be accessed by anyone else except as legally required or wit\
h the permission of the vehicle owner.
n
Service Diagnostic Recorders
This vehicle is equipped with service-related devices that record inform\
ation about powertrain performance. The data can be used to verify emissions l\
aw requirements and/or help technicians diagnose and solve service problems\
. It may
also be combined with data from other sources for research purposes, but\
it remains confidential.
