Abstract:
1. An emergency response system comprising: a restraint control module (RCM); a global positioning system module (GPSM); at least one output; at least one input; an Smart Power Distribution Junction Box (SPDJB); and a vehicle associated computing system (VACS) in communication with the RCM, the GPSM, the at least one output, the at least one input and the SPDJB, wherein upon detection of an emergency event, the RCM requests that the VACS place an emergency call; wherein upon receiving a request from the RCM, the VACS queries the GPSM to obtain vehicle coordinates, informs the occupant of the onset of the call, and instructs a wireless device in communication with the VACS to place an emergency call; wherein, the VACS is further operable to determine when an emergency call is connected; and wherein, once the emergency call is connected, the VACS relays a message indicating connection to the RCM to terminate call request, and further contacts the SPDJB to terminate interfering features.
