Dan that is such ![]() Interesting. My 2001 has this evidently. I'll have to find out exactly what it records. |

I know my 06 has one. It records I think 30 prior to the accident, how fast, if the brakes were applied, seat belt, the direction of the steering wheel and a couple of other things. Hope this helps. Stupid question but maybe online in an owners manual to figure out if the car is equipped with one. Good luck. |

Event Data Recorders are built into the RCM (Restraints Control Module = airbag module) in most Ford Vehicles as of 1996. The Mustang gained an EDR in 1999. It requires special software and cable to connect it to a laptop or Crash Data Retrival tool (used by the insurance industry). The data is admissible as evidence in a court case, since it accepted as being fairly secure and accurate. |
