    Good Morning

    I'm the second owner of a 2012 Prius Two. The driver's seatbelt is starting to fray so I want to replace it, and I want to replace it like-for-like. I see that there are two options: one with "precrash" for ~$400 and one without for ~$200. I've been searching around these forums and the internet, but I can't find out how to determine if my car has this or not. When I put my car into websites that sell them, the websites say that both will fit my car. Adding the VIN does not help.

    Any ideas?

    “Pre crash” is the Japanese term for Pre-Collision System or PCS. For the Gen 3, that was only available on the Five trim level.

    Do all Five trim levels have that or is it just an available option for the Five trim level?

    It was an option as part of the Advanced Technology Package (often referred to as ATP on PriusChat)

    Thanks -- since I have ATP, I automatically have the precrash?
