It's generally split into two steps: forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking. Usually you can adjust the distance of the FCW in your infotainment system. I have to or even slight curves trigger it.
I have only had AEB kick in once when a driver decided to suddenly u-turn on a 45mph road and it saved my car from being totaled.
As always read the owners manual to know the limits. Most AEB systems are only rated to reduce the severity of a crash not prevent it from occurring.
- xyzzyz 6y agoYeah, that makes sense. The automatic braking has never triggered for me, but the collision warning triggers pretty regularly (probably at least once a week) on one part of my commute, right around going uphill here https://goo.gl/maps/r7LpqzHq3Wqg6N8S7 https://goo.gl/maps/r7LpqzHq3Wqg6N8S7 where the system thinks I'm about to hit the parked white van, instead of realizing that the road is curved. > Most AEB systems are only rated to reduce the severity of a crash not prevent it from occurring. I think that Subaru actually calls their system Pre-Collision Braking.
