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.

display in the control settings.
