Modern cars can be equipped with a variety of security systems. These are usually not prescribed. If they are on board, they must also work.
Stuttgart (dpa / tmn) - If an assistance system breaks down in a car, drivers have to have it repaired. Especially when it comes to security systems. This also applies to those that are additionally on board and not required, explain Dekra experts.
For example, if airbags, emergency braking assistants or ESP do not work correctly or no longer work, the driver must not simply switch them off. Instead, they have to be properly repaired. This is to ensure that the high safety standards for modern cars are still adhered to as they get older.
