Asistencia de frenado tras una colisión

In a collision in which the activation level is reached for the pyrotechnic seat belt tensioners or airbags, or if a collision with a large animal is detected, the vehicle's brakes will be automatically activated. This function is intended to help prevent or reduce the effects of any subsequent collision.

After a serious collision, it may no longer be possible to control and steer the vehicle. In order to avoid or mitigate a possible further collision with a vehicle or an object in the vehicle's path, the brake assist system is activated automatically to help stop the vehicle safely.

Si frenar no es adecuado, por ejemplo, si existe riesgo de ser alcanzado por el tráfico que circula detrás, el conductor puede anular el sistema pisando el pedal del acelerador.

Esta función supone que el sistema de frenos no está dañado tras una colisión.
