Abstract

A system includes one or more processors configured to detect activation of an alarm trigger in communication with the one or more processors. The processors are further configured to determine a type of trigger and provide a subtle feedback response, based on the type of trigger, designed to avoid detection by an assailant. The processors are additionally configured to wirelessly contact an emergency responder and provide data usable in determining a vehicle location and a vehicle identification.
