Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS)

After the airbags have been deployed,² you probably won’t think to do some very important things with your Tiguan. That’s why we created the Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS). It unlocks the doors, shuts off the fuel pump, and turns on the hazard lights¹ before you even have a chance to think about it. It’s just one of the many ways that your Tiguan is looking out for you when you need it most.

This is an illustration and does not depict what will happen in a crash. All bags will not inflate in real-world crashes, and if multiple bags do deploy, they will be in various stages of inflating/deflating and will never all be inflated at the same time.
¹The Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS) will only activate in a collision where the airbags deploy or safety belt pretensioners activate. Not all collisions cause airbags to deploy or safety belt pretensioners to activate.
²Airbags are supplemental restraints only and will not deploy under all crash circumstances. Always use safety belts and seat children only in the rear, using restraint systems appropriate for their size and age.
