With vehicles that edge into your lane. These vehicles can only be
detected once they have moved fully into your lane.

There may be issues with the detection of vehicles in front when
driving into and coming out of a bend or curve in the road.

In these cases ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver should
stay alert and intervene when necessary.

ACC Not Available

Several conditions exist which can cause ACC to deactivate or prevent
ACC from activating when requested. These conditions include:

The sensor is blocked, refer to

Blocked sensor

in this section.

Brake temperature is high, refer to

Hilly condition usage

in this

section.

A failure has occurred in the ACC system or related system.
