My wife's car has it. She has had the car for about a year, so I've driven it some. I've had the brakes activate a couple of times--quite the surprise! The first time I was going around the car in front of me as he was slowly making a left-hand turn but hadn't completely vacated our lane. Plenty of room, no issues imo. The car disagreed, and I wondered what in the hell all the beeping was about. A few seconds later I found out as the brakes were applied with force. Very unpleasant ![]() But I have learned to obey the beeps. Big Brother knows best, I guess. |

If they are this intrusive I'm definitely a proponent of adjustments for sensitivity and an off switch!

To be fair, I like some of them, particularly the "auto-adjust" cruise control (or whatever it is called). But I despise the lane-departure warnings and auto-correct. I do see the value of the auto-braking in theory, but it needs to be fine-tuned (at least from the version I have driven) for me to be completely sold. |
