VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM

Even in a case where an operation abnormality occurs in the arithmetic processing unit of the control device, control is safely shifted to the degeneration control microcomputer, and a vehicle control device capable of improving safety is realized. There are provided an outside world recognition microcomputer , a control microcomputer that outputs a control command to the actuator control device, and a degeneration control microcomputer to which control is shifted in a case where an abnormality occurs in the control microcomputer . The outside world recognition microcomputer calculates a collision potential based on information from the outside world, and determines whether to reset the control microcomputer when an abnormality occurs in the control microcomputer or to shift control to the degeneration control microcomputer
