VEHICLE DATA COLLECTION 
AND EVENT DATA 
RECORDERS
This vehicle is equipped with an event 
data recorder (EDR). The main purpose 
of an EDR is to record, in certain crash 
or near crash-like situations, such as 
an air bag deployment or hitting a 
road obstacle, data that will assist in 
understanding how a vehicle’s systems 
performed. The EDR is designed to 
record data related to vehicle dynamics 
and safety systems for a short period of 
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The 
EDR in this vehicle is designed to record 
such data as:
[  How various systems in your vehicle 
were operating;
[  Whether or not the driver and 
passenger safety belts were buckled/
fastened;
[  How far (if at all) the driver was 
depressing the accelerator and/or 
brake pedal; and,
[  How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better 
understanding of the circumstances in 
which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: 
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle 
only if a non-trivial crash situation 
occurs; no data are recorded by the 
EDR under normal driving conditions 
and no personal data (e.g., name, 
gender, age, and crash location) are 
recorded. However, other parties, such 
as law enforcement, could combine the 
EDR data with the type of personally 
identifying data routinely acquired 
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, 
special equipment is required, and 
access to the vehicle or the EDR is 
needed. In addition to the vehicle 
manufacturer, other parties, such as 
law enforcement, that have the special 
equipment, can read the information if 
they have access to the vehicle or the 
EDR.
