Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | |
Rear disc brakes. | |

When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | |
Applies the brakes to a slipping drive wheel to transfer torque to the other side, simulating the effect of a limited-slip differential. We haven't identified all applications, often implied by traction control. | |

Airbags contained just above the window level. Except in cars without a rear seat usually cover first and second row. | |
Selectively applies the brakes to prevent excessive understeer or oversteer (spinning). | |
