This series is designed to help consumers 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.
In this video, Erin and Joel discuss Blind Spot Warning, which are part of the collision warning systems. This feature detects vehicles in the blind spot while driving and notifies the driver to their presence. Some systems provide an additional warning if the driver activates the turn signal.
