Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)
14
BCA uses radar sensors in the corners of the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in
certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver’s blind spot area and before
changing lanes. Initially, BCA provides a Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision
with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors. If
BCA detects that the collision risk has increased, BCA is designed to automatically apply the
opposite-side front brake to try and mitigate a potential collision.
Vehicle Detection: When another vehicle is detected within the Collision Warning
boundary

Collision Warning: When vehicle detection warning is ON and the driver activates a turn
signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors, and BCA will sound
a warning.
Collision-Avoidance Assist: When Collision Warning has already occurred and the BCA
detects that the collision risk has increased, braking is applied to the opposite-side front
wheel, and a visual warning occurs.
