Front crash severity sensor

Front crash severity sensor  - How does the Personal Safety System work? - Personal safety system™ - Seating and Safety Restraints - Lincoln MKZ Owners Manual - Lincoln MKZ

The front crash severity sensor enhances the ability to detect the severity of an impact. Positioned up front, it provides valuable information early in the crash event on the severity of the impact. This allows your Personal Safety System to distinguish between different levels of crash severity and modify the deployment strategy of the dual-stage airbags and safety belt pretensioners.
