  2. Sudden unintended acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration

    Other problems may be implicated in the case of older vehicles equipped with carburetors. Weak, disconnected, or mis-connected throttle return springs, worn shot-pump barrels, chafed cable housings, and cables which jump their tracks in the throttle-body crank can all cause similar acceleration problems.

  3. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

    If brake pressure is distributed from the rear wheel to the front wheel and the friction of the surfaces changes suddenly (puddle, ice on the street) the front wheel might lock even if only the rear brake has been applied. This would lead to a loss of stability and a fall down. CBS is therefore combined with ABS to avoid this on a motorcycle.

  4. Traction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

    Here the pneumatic brake system needs some additional valves and control logic to realize a TCS (or sometimes called ASR) system. [2] In motorcycles: Traction control for production motorcycles was first available with the BMW K1 in 1988. Honda offered Traction Control as an option, along with ABS, on their ST1100 beginning about 1992.

  5. 2009–2011 Toyota vehicle recalls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009–2011_Toyota_vehicle...

    The brake override system, also called "brake to idle" and already a common design in German cars, allows the driver to override the accelerator by hitting the brakes. In a follow-up statement, the NHTSA announced the November 25, 2009 recall details as a "vehicle-based remedy" to address the floor mat pedal issue. [ 64 ]

  6. Electronic stability control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_stability_control

    In heavy trucks the ESC and ESP functions must be realized as part of the pneumatic brake system. [79] Typical component and system suppliers are e.g. Bendix, [80] and WABCO,. [81] ESC is also available on some motor homes. The ChooseESC! campaign, [82] run by the EU's eSafetyAware! project, [83] provides a global perspective on ESC.

  7. Engine braking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_braking

    A compression release brake (also known as a Jacobs brake or "jake brake"), is the type of brake most commonly confused with real engine braking; it is used mainly in large diesel trucks and works by opening the exhaust valves at the top of the compression stroke, so the large amount of energy stored in that compressed air is not returned to ...

  8. Brake fluid pressure sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fluid_pressure_sensor

    The fault could be lack of hydraulic fluid, low brake fluid in the reservoir, a broken hydraulic line or a bad master brake cylinder. The sensor is used to detect pressure differentials in the hydraulic system. If the car alerts a fault in the hydraulic system and the system checks out, the sensor itself may have failed. [2]

  9. Collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_system

    2003: Honda introduced autonomous braking (Collision Mitigation Brake System CMBS, originally CMS) front collision avoidance system on the Inspire [29] and later in Acura, using a radar-based system to monitor the situation ahead and provide brake assistance if the driver reacts with insufficient force on the brake pedal after a warning in the ...
