Description of the problem | Sel premium trim lane assist malfunction - system will inaccurately detect lane lines and attempt to adjust the vehicle to the center of the lane, even when it already is centered in the lane, resulting in the vehicle pulling into the adjacent lane. Has nearly pulled the vehicle into adjacent lane with another vehicle present in the lane resulting in near collisions on numerous occasions. System will also register as the vehicle somehow departing into the lanes on both sides of vehicle at the same time, and will essentially lock the steering wheel in place. See included photo evidence - both lines on the side of the vehicle are solid white indicating that the departure mitigation is activated, and the green "lane" icon indicates that the lane departure system is currently activated. Dealer service department response: ""npf unable to reproduce customers concern". |
