INFINITI QX55 2023 Owners Manual

These data can help provide a better under-
standing 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 re-
corded by the EDR under normal driving con-
ditions 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 identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the ve-
hicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer and INFINITI retailer,
other parties, such as law enforcement, that
have the special equipment, can read the in-
formation if they have access to the vehicle or
the EDR.
EDR data will only be accessed with the con-
sent of the vehicle owner or lessee or as
otherwise required or permitted by law.ADDITIONAL DATA RECORDING
(on vehicles equipped with optional
ProPILOT Assist)
If your vehicle is equipped with the optional
ProPILOT Assist, it will also be equipped with
a supplemental vehicle data recording
function.
The data recording function is designed to
record such data as:
• Driver operational status of accelerator,brakes, steering, etc.
• Detection status of a vehicle ahead and lane markers
• Vehicle information including distance to vehicle ahead and lateral position
• Information on the operation of the ProPI- LOT Assist and other crash avoidance
features
• ProPILOT Assist malfunction diagnosis information
• External images from multi-sensing front camera (Available only when SRS air bag or
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system is
activated)
ProPILOT Assist does not record conversa-
tions, sounds or images of the inside of the
vehicle. To read this vehicle data, special equipment is
required and access to the vehicle or the re-
cording unit is needed. This vehicle data will
only be accessed with the consent of the
vehicle owner or lessee or as otherwise re-
quired or permitted by law.
If downloaded, NISSAN may use the data
recorded for the purpose of improving
NISSAN's vehicle safety performance.
NISSAN will not disclose/provide the re-
corded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or
with the consent of the lessee
• In response to an official request from law enforcement, a court order, governmental
agency, or other legally enforceable
requests
• For use as part of NISSAN's defense of litigation
• For research purposes after the data is modified such that it is no longer tied to a
specific vehicle or vehicle owner
If you have any questions regarding the data
NISSAN may collect about you, please visit our
Privacy Policy: https://www.infinitiusa.com.
