DRIVING AND OPERATING
ACC may occasionally provide an alert
and/or braking that is considered
unnecessary. It could respond to
vehicles in different lanes, signs,
guardrails, and other stationary
objects when entering or exiting a
curve. This is normal operation. The
vehicle does not need service.
Other Vehicle Lane Changes
ACC will not detect a vehicle ahead
until it is completely in the lane. The
brakes may need to be manually
applied.
Objects Not Directly in Front of Your
Vehicle
The detection of objects in front of
the vehicle may not be possible if:
.
The vehicle or object ahead is not
within your lane.
.
The vehicle ahead is shifted, not
centered, or is shifted to one side of
the lane.
Driving in Narrow Lanes
Vehicles in adjacent traffic lanes or
roadside objects may be incorrectly
detected when located along the
roadway.
Do Not Use ACC on Hills
Do not use ACC when driving on steep
hills as ACC may not detect a vehicle
ahead.
Towing with ACC
If equipped when towing a trailer, ACC
driving characteristics such as
following gap, acceleration rates and
braking rates may be modified to
provide a better towing experience.
ACC should not be used while towing
a trailer with an aftermarket trailer
brake controller. Aftermarket trailer
brake controllers may not function
properly with the ACC system.
ACC may be used when towing a
trailer when trailer attached is within
GM-approved allowable size and
weight limits. See
