Do I need to turn something on (in the car settings collision warning is on).
tried it with a friend while he was going slower than me and i just raced almost into his bumper, no warning, no braking assist, nothing, it's like my ch-r wants me to crash
I nearly ran my friend over trying this out and no warning was given, having said that I have had the warning on a couple of times randomly with nothing to close to me, very odd.
I have found that after using the adaptive cruise control for a while the front parking sensor goes mad when coming into traffic , which is starting to annoy me :evil:
Mine goes off for cars parked on the other side of the road facing me at an angle. Can we swap ha ha. Oh you can turn it off? Good. But you have to do it every time yay.
If the system is turned on, and you set it to most sensitive (medium works best for me) and you are pressing the accelerator or no pedal it should give you a brake warning. However it does it when you are too close (for your normal feeling).
It is also not intended to completely prevent an accident, but to minimize the impact. Untill a certain speed it will prevent a collision.
I raised a similar question a while ago and did something similar when my friend was in front, again nothing happened part from me hitting the brakes hard at last minute.
Then another time driving along and my side of road approaching a narrow single lane there was a bollard my side, I knew I was ok to carry on and drive around it but car alerted me of collision. Bit hit and miss. Just hope it will do its job if it ever needs to.
Had no issues with mine touch wood. In fact it has stopped three accidents so far and I am super happy with it.
One other thing. Make sure your sensors are clean. The one and only time mine has "miss" alerted was the radar was wet and dirty on the front.
