Detection Issues

The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. It may not detect vehicles
at all or detect a vehicle later than expected in some situations. The lead
vehicle graphic will not illuminate if the system does not detect a vehicle
in front of you.
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.
