Jeep Wrangler: Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitigation — If Equipped / FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity

The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking status are programmable through the Uconnect system.

  • Far
    • When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Far” setting and the system status is “Only Warning”, this allows the system to warn the driver of a possible more distant collision with the vehicle in front using audible/visual warnings.
    • More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
  • Medium
    • When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Medium” setting and the system status is “Only Warning”, this allows the system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle in front using audible/ visual warnings.
  • Near
    • When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Near” setting and the system status is "Only Warning”, this allows the system to warn the driver of a possible closer collision with the vehicle in front using audible/visual warnings.
    • This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” and “Medium” settings, which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.
    • More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
