Ford Escape: Collision Warning and Collision Avoidance System / Description and Operation - Collision Warning and Collision Avoidance System - Overview
Overview
The forward collision warning system works in conjunction with the ACC
system. The forward collision warning system alerts the driver of a
collision risk by illuminating the red warning indicator located in the
IPC information center and in the HUD . The IPC sends a request to the ACM to sound an audible warning chime.
