At Quantum Calibrations we focus on diagnosis, repair, and calibration of advanced vehicle safety systems. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are becoming more and more popular in today’s vehicles. These systems help keep you safe on the road. Some examples of these systems include emergency brake assist, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, pedestrian detection, adaptive headlights and many more. ADAS functionalities can change the driving experience. According to research by LexisNexis Risk Solutions, ADAS vehicles showed a 27% reduction in bodily injury claim frequency and a 19% reduction in property damage frequency. So what does ADAS mean to you? A safer vehicle and driving experience. Let’s look at some different scenarios to help you understand what ADAS really is. You are getting ready to back up in a shopping center to leave. You put your vehicle in reverse, everything looks clear and you let your foot off the brake. Suddenly, you hear a loud beep letting you know something is blocking your way. You glance and someone is walking behind your car or a car speeds by unexpectedly. Whoa that was a close call! You are driving on the highway. Everything looks clear and you signal to change lanes. You look in your mirror and see a clear lane then the light on your mirror flashes letting you know to stop because that car coming was in your blind spot! You are trying to parallel park in a really tight spot. Luckily, your vehicle is equipped with sensors and a camera. Gone are the days of hitting the bumpers in the front and back of you. What's The Conclusion Having a vehicle that is equipped with ADAS gives you the comfort of knowing that your car is looking out for you to help keep you safe. Making sure these systems are working properly is important. If you notice something wrong, Quantum Calibrations can help! We offer same / next day appointments Monday through Saturday.
