In this video, Amber and Kurt discuss Reverse Automatic Reverse Braking, which is a part of the Collision Intervention system. Reverse AEB detects potential collisions while in reverse gear and automatically brakes to avoid or lessen the severity of impact. Some systems also detect pedestrians or other objects.

This series was filmed by the Society of Collision Repair Specialists (www.scrs.com) and I-CAR (www.I-CAR.com) to help consumers better understand the safety systems and functions potentially found on their vehicles, and considerations those systems may contribute to the repair process. Terminology used is common naming, and not meant to replace automaker proprietary system or package names.

These videos were filmed at the I-CAR Chicago Technical Center (CTC).
