Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 Features

TSS is a driver-support system and does not replace safe, attentive driving. Feature availability varies by model, year and trim. See your Owner’s Manual for details.

Pre-Collision System (PCS)

Designed to help detect a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist ahead in certain conditions. If it senses a possible collision, it can give an alert, add brake assist, or apply the brakes automatically.

Dust, glare and wind-blown debris are part of driving in the Antelope Valley. Keep the windshield area in front of the camera and the front grille sensor clean so the system can see clearly.

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC)

Lets you set a following distance from the vehicle ahead while cruise control is on. The system can slow down and speed back up with traffic within its limits.

Helpful on long stretches of the 14, the 138 and Highway 58, where traffic speeds change often.

Proactive Driving Assist (PDA)

Can provide gentle braking and steering support in everyday situations, such as easing up as you approach a slower vehicle or a curve, even when cruise control is off.

The video shows how to turn PDA on or off and how to adjust it to your liking.

Lane Departure Assist

Can alert you if your vehicle starts to drift out of its lane without a turn signal, and may provide gentle steering assistance to help bring it back.

Works best on roads with clear, visible lane markings.

Lane Tracing Assist (LTA)

When Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is on, LTA can help keep your vehicle centered in its lane when lane markings are visible.

Keep your hands on the wheel. LTA supports your steering; it does not steer for you.

Road Sign Assist (RSA)

Can recognize certain road signs, such as speed limits and stop signs, and show them on your instrument panel.

Handy when a speed limit changes as you drive from town onto the highway.

Automatic High Beams (AHB)

Can switch between high and low beams automatically based on headlights and taillights ahead, helping you see farther at night without dazzling other drivers.

Useful on dark rural roads around Lancaster, Littlerock, Rosamond and Quartz Hill.

Keep Your Safety Sensors Working

Toyota Safety Sense depends on a camera behind the windshield and a radar sensor in the front of the vehicle. After a windshield replacement, a front-end collision repair or a suspension change, these sensors may need to be checked or recalibrated. Our factory-trained technicians can inspect your TSS system during your next visit. Book service online or see our Toyota Express Maintenance.
