BACK STOP
THE FULLY AUTOMATIC REVERSE BRAKING SYSTEM MINIMIZE DAMAGE TO SURROUNDING OBSTA CLES
BACKSTOP applies the brakes instantly and automatically when a reversing vehicle contacts an obstacle. C O S T SAVINGS
Installing BACKSTOP minimizes damage costs to both the installed vehicle and surrounding obstacles. May reduce insurance premiums. MINIMIZE VEHICLE DAMAGE
BACKSTOP projects beyond the rear of the vehicle, minimizing collision damage to doors, lights, and rear steps.
MAXIMUM SAFETY
BACKSTOP’S instant and ^ automatic braking system is much faster than a driver’s reaction time. The brakes remain applied until the driver manually releases the brakes by shifting the vehicle out of reverse gear.
IIHS: Rear Automated Emergency Braking Is Standout Safety Feature • Based on insurance claims for some vehicles, IIHS said rear AEB can reduce damage liability claims by 28 percent, while a backup camera or those beeping sensors reduce that by just 5 percent.
