POST-CRASH ALERT SYSTEM
The system flashes the direction indicators

The horn and indicators turn off when:
You press the hazard control button.
You press the panic button on the
remote entry transmitter (if equipped).
Your vehicle runs out of power.
Sounding of the horn is only enabled
in specific markets.
