Forward Collision Avoidance › Adaptive Cruise Control
Filed Mar 27, 2024MI
Adaptive cruise control turns all Advanced Driver Assistance Systems if it does not sense that there is a vehicle ahead for a period of approx. 45 minutes. The system completely shuts down and cannot be reset manually. After approx. 45 minutes the system turns back on. This happened to me 4 times as I drove across the US. Not have any Advances Driver Assistance Systems operating for a period of 45 minutes is highly dangerous. Apparently there is a fix but it is not currently recognized by Mercedes.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
