Vehicle-to-Vehicle If equipped, Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) can communicate with other V2Vequipped vehicles to send and receive vehicle location, speed, direction, and notices regarding certain traffic situations from up to approximately 300 m (980 ft) away. Under certain conditions, V2V may provide notice of certain traffic situations, such as when other V2V-equipped vehicles ahead may be braking hard, disabled, on slippery roads, or in a crash. V2V does not automatically brake or steer the vehicle. Warning: V2V features work only when other nearby vehicles equipped with V2V are detected and communications are received. V2V may not detect other V2V-equipped vehicles or receive communications under certain conditions, including around tall buildings, in parking garages, around airports, in tunnels and underpasses, in an area with very dense trees or where the roof antenna is blocked by objects such as roof carriers, snow or ice. Communication failures or delays can occur and may not provide notice sufficiently in advance to help avoid a crash, or may not provide any notices at all. Pay attention to the road and operation of the vehicle at all times and be ready to take action and apply the brakes. See Defensive Driving. Warning: V2V does not detect or warn of pedestrians, animals, signs, guardrails, bridges, construction barrels, or other objects. Under certain conditions, V2V can notify of situations that are beyond line-of-sight. It is important to understand the feature operation to be prepared when events that may not be seen immediately are detected. Even if the V2V features are turned off through vehicle personalization, information from the vehicle is sent to other vehicles equipped with V2V. Other vehicles equipped with V2V may be alerted to certain events involving your vehicle, such as hard braking, activation of hazard warning flashers, an airbag deployment or a StabiliTrak, Traction Control or Antilock Brake System (ABS) event. V2V communications are not stored by the vehicle and cannot be used to identify owners or occupants or to later track the vehicles location. Unnecessary Alerts V2V features may provide alerts to driving situations that are too early or unnecessary. These alerts are normal operation and the vehicle does not need service. SERVICE VEHICLE SOON If this message displays, V2V features may need service. Do not use them. Take the vehicle to your dealer. V2V Hard Braking Ahead When the vehicle is traveling above 30 km/h (19 mph), V2V may detect when a V2V-equipped vehicle ahead is braking hard. Under these conditions, V2V may display a Driver Information Center (DIC) message and icon. If equipped, a red flashing alert on the windshield may also occur. With Head-Up Display Without Head-Up Display 4537854 2735596 When a detected vehicle is braking extremely hard, rapid beeps or seat pulses may also occur. To enable or disable this feature, see Connected Vehicle Braking Alert under Vehicle Personalization. V2V Disabled Vehicle Ahead When the vehicle is traveling above 20 km/h (13 mph), V2V may detect when a V2V-equipped vehicle ahead has a deployed airbag. When the vehicle is traveling above 60 km/h (38 mph), V2V may detect when a V2V-equipped vehicle ahead has warning flashers active and is moving slowly or has stopped. Under these disabled vehicle conditions, V2V may display a DIC message with the estimated distance to the vehicle. A chime or two seat pulses may also occur. TRAFFIC INFORMATION OFF This message displays when the V2V Disabled Vehicle Ahead feature has been turned off. To enable or disable this feature, see Traffic and Roadside Information under Vehicle Personalization. V2V Slippery Road Ahead When the vehicle is traveling above 20 km/h (13 mph), V2V may detect when a V2V-equipped vehicle ahead has a StabiliTrak, Traction Control, or Antilock Brake System (ABS) event. This could indicate that the road ahead is slippery or has low traction. Under these conditions, V2V may display a DIC message with the estimated distance to the vehicle. TRAFFIC INFORMATION OFF This message displays when the V2V Slippery Road Ahead feature has been turned off. To enable or disable this feature, see Traffic and Roadside Information under Vehicle Personalization. FCC:
