Rear Collision Warning*1

The Rear Collision Warning2 (RCW) function can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions from vehicles approaching from behind.

The function can alert drivers of following vehicles of the risk of a collision by rapidly flashing the turn signals.

The Whiplash Protection System safety system will also be activated in a collision.

The function is automatically activated each time the engine is started.
