Blind-spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)*†4
BCA uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver ’s blind spot area and before changing lanes Initially, BCA provides Blind-spot Collision Warning (BCW) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Blind-spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) automatically applies the opposite side front brake to try and mitigate a potential collision
Vehicle detection warning: When another vehicle is detected within collision warning boundary A, an indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B
Collision warning: When vehicle detection warning is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning
