With advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) standard on most new vehicles today, the aftermarket industry must be aware of how parts and accessories may affect the safety systems. But just how much do parts manufacturers need to know, and what are manufacturers responsible for?
SEMA members are invited to a live webinar on October 18 to find out what parts manufacturers need to know about ADAS and the federal motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS). During the session, engineers and legal experts will explain what responsibilities manufacturers have when developing products that may affect the ADAS, including:
- How to determine what aftermarket parts may impact ADAS.
- If the manufacturer is liable for a vehicle’s ADAS after it has been modified.
- What the FMVSS says in relation to ADAS.
- What actions manufacturers can begin taking today to protect the company.
Register here for “What Are My Responsibilities If I Manufacture Parts That Affect a Vehicle’s ADAS?” on October 18, at 1:00 p.m. (PDT).
