Detection issues can occur:

A. When driving on a different line
than the vehicle in front.

B. With vehicles that edge into your
lane. The system can only detect
these vehicles once they move fully
into your lane.

C. There may be issues with the
detection of vehicles in front when
driving into and coming out of a
bend or curve in the road.

In these cases the system may brake late or unexpectedly. You should
stay alert and intervene when necessary.

If the front end of your vehicle is hit or damaged, the radar sensing zone
may be altered causing missed or false vehicle detections. See your
authorized dealer to have the radar checked for proper coverage and
operation.
