If equipped, the FCA system may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a vehicle ahead too
quickly, FCA provides ared flashing alert on
the windshield and rapidly beeps or pulses the
driver seat. FCA also lights an amber visual alert
if following another vehicle much too closely.
FCA detects vehicles within adistance of
approximately 60 m (197 ft) and operates at
speeds above 8 km/h (5 mph). If the vehicle
has Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), it can detect
vehicles to distances of approximately 110 m
