This paper describes a failsafe system of automated driving vehicles. The failsafe system consists of the following two parts: sliding mode observer-based environment sensor, chassis sensor fault detection, and emergency deceleration control. Two sliding mode observers are designed to reconstruct the fault of acceleration and environment sensor(Lidar) in a longitudinal direction. In the environment sensor's fault detection part, the longitudinal vehicle model receives clearance and relative velocity values. Therefore, failure diagnosis is possible regardless of environmental sensors, such as radar, lidar, and camera. This paper's sensor data is the failure of Delphi's Electronically Scanning Radar (ESR) and Ibeo's LUX Lidar installed in an autonomous vehicle. The emergency deceleration control algorithm employs the sliding mode control with adaptive convergence time. In the event of a failure, it is significant to control the vehicle within a short period safely.
