The function of the Forward Collision Warning system can also be impaired when radar signal, radiation is reflected, for example, in multilevel parking structures, or by nearby metallic objects such, as rails or metal plates road, the area in front of and around the radar sensor ⇒ fig.
Stickers, additional headlights, a license plate bracket, or other things, as these items can impair, function of the Forward Collision Warning system, any structural modifications to the vehicle, for example, lowering the vehicle or alterations front, end trim, can impair the function of the Forward Collision Warning system.
Should only be carried out by a qualified workshop ⇒ page 386, Parts, accessories, repairs, and modifications, incorrectly performed repairs to the front end of the vehicle can change the position of the radar sensor and therefore impair the function of the Forward Collision Warning system, only be carried out by a qualified workshop.
