Got it, that's what I was hoping would be the case.
Oh yeah, I will for sure. I've had it in plenty of other vehicles and always turn it off. Nice that it remains off when restarted. I had a Bronco and Raptor that did that, but I've had some European cars that always defaulted to on. Those European "off-road" vehicles would also default to the basic street setting when off-roading too. Thank you Mercedes and Land Rover for taking the vehicle out of 4WD and lowering the suspension (on the RR) repeatedly. I know not many people take a G550 or a Range Rover off-road, but those are stupid settings and can be quite dangerous.In LA, LKA is almost unusable. Turn it off once you get the R1T
I turned this off after the first week. I was constantly fighting the steering wheel and now my driving experience is much better.So you might have read my posts about LKA in my specific situation. Well, today I turned it off and let me tell you: it made my driving experience so much nicer this morning.
If you have LKA binging and bonging you around and seemingly not understanding where the lanes are, turn it off!
Both ways on my commute are into the sun, and the freeways in socal are generally a mess, and with all the construction there are areas where lane lines were removed, but in the sun the vehicle still things they are there. Either that, or they have changed the material that the road is made out of (concrete to asphalt) that splits a lane of traffic, and the car thinks you are moving lanes.
About 90% of the time the car activated LKA it was reading a false line. I couldn't seem to take an offramp without my blinker on where LKA wouldn't engage.
This morning I turned it off, and it truly brightened my experience. If you're in a similar experience turn it off for just one day and see
This was my experience. "fighting the steering wheel" is a good way of putting it. Although it did it's job maybe twice in the span of time I had it on (almost 2 months), about 5 times a day it would engage when it shouldn't, and more than a couple times it did so dangerously.
Do you have an issue with an insane sun reflection on your hood? I’ll put the very oversized sun visor down and still get blinded by my hood.
This is every morning but luckily only on the last leg of my commute to school drop off— just so happens to be when I’m going up a steep hill in Echo Park. I worry about it on road trips etc as I have def driven into the sun a lot on my life.
