Volkswagen Launches H.E.L.P.® Alerts for Enhanced Road Safety

Volkswagen drivers can now feel safer with the new H.E.L.P.® (Hazard Enhanced Location Protocol) Alerts included in VW’s Car-Net Safe & Secure subscription for most 2024 and 2025 models. These alerts offer in-dash notifications for approaching hazards like disabled vehicles and emergency responders, using advanced C-V2X (cellular-vehicle-to-everything) technology. When a Volkswagen vehicle becomes disabled, H.E.L.P.® alerts notify oncoming vehicles, enhancing response time and road safety for everyone.

As the first automaker in the U.S. to integrate this alert system, Volkswagen’s commitment to safety goes beyond its vehicles, extending to everyone on the road. This technology comes at no additional cost in the Safe & Secure package, emphasizing VW’s mission to make advanced safety accessible.
