obstacle; this data will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The event data recorder is
designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
•
•
Events or errors in essential systems,
for example headlamps and brakes.
System responses to driving situations,
for example airbag deployment and
stability control.
The event data recorder in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
•
Environmental conditions, for example
•
•
How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
Whether or not the driver and

Our dealers collect service data through
the data link connector in your vehicle.
They use service data, for example error
logs, to help them if you take your vehicle

technical team, if required, to help with
diagnosis. In addition to using the

information for diagnosis and repair, we
use and share service data with our service
providers, for example parts suppliers,
where required and where permitted by
law, for continuous improvement or with
other information that we have about you,
for example your contact information, to
offer you products and services that may
be of interest to you according to your
preferences and where allowed by law.
Our service providers are equally required
by law to protect your data and retain it in
accordance with data retention policies.
Note: Event data recorder data is recorded
by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data is recorded by the
event data recorder under normal driving
conditions and no personal data or
information (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) is recorded. However,
parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the event data recorder data with
the type of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
Note: Third party repair facilities can also
collect service data through the data link
connector.
