access or down load data recorded by pre-instal
led crash data recorders in orde r to evaluate a
crash without clear consent of the vehicle owner.
Your vehicle is not equ ipped w ith a crash data re
corder . However it does contain a variety of e lec
tronic control modules for various vehicle sys
tems such as engine function, exha ust treatment
or airbags and safety belts.
