Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Pre-collision system displays a malfunction warning and disables cruise control, lane assist, and pre-collision alerts.
  • Pre-collision system automatically shuts off during snowy driving conditions and reports the road ahead as 'not detected'.
  • Front sensor or camera system fails, disabling cruise control, auto brights, lane assist, and emergency braking together.
  • Front camera sensor warning light intermittently comes on and off within minutes, sometimes followed later by unexplained emergency brake notifications on the freeway.
  • Dealers have attributed some malfunction warnings to rodent damage on the wiring harness rather than a manufacturing defect.
