Vehicle Data Collection and

Event Data Recorders

Your vehicle, like other modern motor vehi-

cles, has a number of sophisticated com-

puter systems that monitor and control sev-

eral aspects of the vehicle’s performance.

Your vehicle uses on-board vehicle comput-

ers to monitor emission control components

to optimize fuel economy, to monitor condi-

tions for air bag deployment and, if so

equipped, to provide anti-lock braking and

to help the driver control the vehicle in diffi-

cult driving situations. Some information

may be stored during regular operations to

facilitate repair of detected malfunctions;

other information is stored only in a crash

event by computer systems commonly

called event data recorders (EDR).

In a crash event, computer systems, such

as the Air Bag Sensing and Diagnostic

Module (SDM) in your vehicle may record

information about the condition of the vehi-

cle and how it was operated, such as data

related to engine speed, brake application,

throttle position, vehicle speed, steering

wheel angle, lateral acceleration, safety belt

usage, air bag readiness, air bag perfor-

mance, and the severity of a collision. This

information has been used to improve vehi-

cle crash performance and may be used to

improve crash performance of future vehi-

cles and driving safety. Unlike the data

recorders on many airplanes, these on-

board systems do not record sounds, such

as conversation of vehicle occupants.

To read this information, special equipment

is needed and access to the vehicle or the

SDM is required.

Saab will not access information about a

crash event or share it with others other than

• with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if

the vehicle is leased, with the consent of

the lessee,

• in response to an official request of police

or similar government office,

• as part of Saab’s defense of litigation

through the discovery process, or

• as required by law.

In addition, once Saab collects or receives

data, Saab may

• use the data for Saab research needs,

• make it available for research where

appropriate confidentiality is to be main-

tained and need is shown, or

• share summary data which is not tied to a

specific vehicle with non-Saab organiza-

tions for research purposes.

Others, such as law enforcement, may have

access to the special equipment that can

read the information if they have access to

the vehicle or SDM.

If your vehicle is equipped with OnStar®,

please check lthe OnStar® subscription

service agreement or manual for informa-

tion on its operations and data collection.
