VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

Abstract:

A vehicle control apparatus includes: a steering control unit connected to an in-vehicle communication network mounted on a vehicle and configured to control a steering motor configured to add an auxiliary torque corresponding to a steering operation by a driver to a steering mechanism; and an illegal signal detection unit connected to the in-vehicle communication network and configured to detect an illegal signal input to the in-vehicle communication network. The steering control unit restricts the auxiliary torque when the illegal signal is detected by the illegal signal detection unit.
