Lane Departure Warning

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

With input from the frontview camera module the active safety control module will issue a warning via serial data to the instrument cluster to turn on the lane departure warning telltale when the system detects that the vehicle has unintentionally crossed a lane marking. In addition, an audible alert or haptic alert will signal the driver the vehicle has unintentionally left the lane. The memory seat module will command three pulses to the left or right side of the seat depending on the lane departure direction. The front view camera is located behind the windshield, looking out at the road ahead and detecting any lane markings. The system can be turned off by using the lane departure warning switch.

The lane departure warning telltale will be illuminated green when the system is ready to assist and will be a flashing an amber color when crossing the lane unintentionally.
