LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (IF EQUIPPED)
This feature uses a camera mounted on the windshield near the inside rearview mirror to detect lane markings and alert the driver when the vehicle departs from the lane. It operates only at speeds greater than 35 mph (56 km/h).
The warning symbol, located in the instrument panel cluster, will appear green if a

When the system senses a discrepancy between your intended path and the direction the vehicle is actually traveling, it selectively applies brake pressure at any one of the wheels to help steer the vehicle in the direction in which you are steering.
RESETTING THE OIL LIFE SYSTEM
The Oil Life System calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and displays CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON in the Driver Information Center when it’s necessary to change your engine oil and filter. The Oil Life System should be reset to 100% only following an oil change.
