windshield is dirty or damaged, it
may not detect the lanes ahead.
LDW may not help avoid a crash
under these conditions. Keep the
headlamps cleaned and properly
aimed and the windshield clean.
LDW warnings may occasionally
occur due to tar marks, shadows,
cracks in the road, or other road
imperfections. This is normal system
operation, the vehicle does not need
