DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS♦

DRIVER ASSIST PACKAGE
Forward/Reverse Automatic Braking – In potential front- and rear-end imminent collision situations with vehicles directly ahead or behind, and with some objects behind your vehicle, the brakes may be applied, if you have not already done so, to help reduce the collision's severity or help avoid collisions at very low speeds.
