Features Hardly noticed but it is there when needed.

:
Mazda 5 GT
We hardly notice these important features of the MAZDA5.

1. Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) -- This served me once and prevented
a fender bender.

2. EBFD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution) -- Supposedly helps keep the mazda5
from doing a tail spin during long full braking on icy/slippery road.

I had a video on this. I thought I would share.

(turn up the volume to hear the familiar sound of the ABS).

Sorry about that.

- Is the message I get from the link.

"ebfd = abs" - No, but it is included with many cars equipped with ABS. Including our 5.

Oppss.. sorry.. now it is open.

as for EBFD I still could not figure out exactly how it prevents the rear from going to the side.. In my old buick, it was expected for the vehicle to start moving side ways when it slides. But in this case, I just stepped on the brakes and held on it.. while manning the steering wheel. Lucky I did not panic and did not 'pump' the brake.
