United States

  • COMMUNICATION: AUTO CRASH NOTIFICATIONUS

    A disabled eCall system would prevent a vehicle occupant from contacting emergency services through the call center in an emergency, potentially delaying emergency responders and increasing the risk of injury.

  • LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCHUS

    If the door appears to be locked, the door may be unintentionally opened, increasing the risk of injury.

  • ELECTRICAL SYSTEMUS

    If the power bars are not properly secured, it can cause higher electrical resistance increasing the risk of a fire. Additionally, an intermittent contact between the power bars could lead to a loss of vehicle functions. The engine operation, the seat belt functions and the instrument cluster could be impaired, increasing the risk of a crash and injuries.

  • LANE DEPARTURE: LANE KEEP: STEERING ASSISTUS

    If the system remains active despite the driver not having their hands on the wheel, the driver's inattention may increase the risk of crash.

    The incorrect size brake components may lead to the wrong replacement components fitted to the vehicle during brake repairs, possibly affecting braking performance and increasing the risk of a crash.

  • LANE DEPARTURE: LANE KEEP: STEERING ASSISTUS

    If the system remains active despite the driver not having their hands on the wheel, the driver's inattention may increase the risk of crash.

  • ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWAREUS

    Without the audible tone and blinking warning light to remind the front seat occupants that their seat belts are not buckled, they may forget to buckle their seat belt, increasing their risk of injury in the event of a crash.

  • SEAT BELTSUS

    If the seat belt tensioning does not activate in the event of a crash, it can increase the risk of injury.

  • FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: SENSING SYSTEM: RADARUS

    An impaired Active Brake Assist may not automatically apply partial or full braking as expected, increasing the risk of a crash.
