Overview

The BendixVORAD® VS-400 collision warning system is an advanced vehicle on-board radar system that monitors traffic conditions, warning the driver of potentially hazardous driving situations.

Collision Warning and SmartCruise

The Collision Warning System tracks vehicles ahead of the host vehicle, warning the driver with visual and audible indicators from the in-cab Driver Interface Unit whenever following distances become unsafe.

SmartCruise® adaptive cruise control adjusts the vehicle’s cruise speed in order to match the speed of detected traffic ahead allowing the driver to maintain a safe following distance while in cruise control.

The optional Side Object Detection system warns of unsafe lane changes by detecting a vehicle that may be difficult to see in the adjacent lane.

! WARNING

The BendixVORAD® VS-400 system should only be used as a driving aid and not as a substitute for safe driving practices.
