The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE WARNING! • Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them. • Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
