If a Forward Collision Warning with Mitigation
event begins at a speed below 26 mph
(42 km/h), the system may provide the maxi-
mum braking possible to mitigate the poten-
tial forward collision. If the Forward Collision
Warning with Mitigation event stops the ve-
hicle completely, the system will hold the
vehicle at standstill for two seconds and then
release the brakes.
When the system determines a collision with
the vehicle in front of you is no longer probable,
the warning message will be deactivated.
NOTE:
• The minimum speed for FCW activation is
3 mph (5 km/h).
• The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects
other than vehicles such as guard rails or
sign posts based on the course prediction.
This is expected and is a part of normal
FCW activation and functionality.
•
The FCW system is intended for on-road use
only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW
system should be deactivated to prevent un-
necessary warnings to the surroundings.
• If the vehicle enters 4WD Low Range, the
FCW system will be automatically deacti-
vated.
• The active braking is disabled when a
trailer is connected with a Mopar Trailer
Towing system. If the vehicle is equipped
with an aftermarket system, it is recom-
mended that the Active Braking is turned
off manually.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not
intended to avoid a collision on its own,
nor can FCW detect every type of potential
collision. The driver has the responsibility
to avoid a collision by controlling the ve-
hicle via braking and steering. Failure to
follow this warning could lead to serious
injury or death.
Turning FCW On Or Off
The Forward Collision menu setting is located
in the Uconnect settings.
NOTE:
The default status of FCW is “Warning +
Active Braking,” this allows the system to
warn you of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front of you and enable the active
braking.
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” deacti-
vates the system, so no warning or active
braking will be available in case of a pos-
sible collision
• Changing the FCW status to “Only warning”
prevents the system from providing limited
active braking, or additional brake support
if the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision, but
maintains the audible and visual warnings.
Changing the status of the system is only
possible with the vehicle at a complete stop.
