Collision Detection ?

[sandman0023]

I’m looking into purchasing and installing the Roush front fascia for my 2016. It says it is not compatible with vehicles that have collision detection and adaptive cruise control. My window sticker says nothing about either. I don’t believe I have adaptive cruise. How do I know if I have collision detection? I mean without almost crashing? I had an alert once about a vehicle approaching from the side, is that cd?

You don’t have collision alert. I don’t think it was even offered in 2016. It’s part of the safe and sound package. It’s bundled with adaptive cruise control and uses a camera behind the rear view mirror, plus a radar sensor in the grill. You’d also have a string of bright red LEDs that reflect on the lower windshield when you start the car or when it senses an impending collision. The feature you apparently do have is rear cross traffic alert.

Red LEDs? Kinda like KITT? Aw man! Thanks for the reply.

Sorry, but the 2016 was available with collision avoidance. Check you owners manual for where the controls are and see if you have them.

Not quite. Looks like this. Blinding when it goes off.
