Safety

This system is similar to an attentive co-pilot who can remind you if you're driving distracted or drowsy. For even more convenience, the DriverFocus™ Distraction Mitigation System can remember up to five drivers' faces as well as their preferences.
- For more confidence and clarity going into corners, the new Legacy offers available LED Steering Responsive Headlights, which track the direction of a turn. There is also the option of High Beam Assist, which will automatically switch between high and low beams when an oncoming vehicle is detected.
- You can count on all-around awareness with available features like Blind-Spot Detection, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Reverse Automatic Braking. With these advanced driver assistance features, the Legacy will help notify you of dangers from all directions.
