My car's malfunctioning MY CAR'S MALFUNCTIONING!!!!!!
I knew what was wrong, but that didn't make it better. Not one bit.
Lemme explain. When wet, heavy snow falls? It collects on the radar sensor on my grill. Once enough of it cakes up, it interferes with the function of my Smart Cruise Control (or SCC) and my car goes 'Your turn to drive!'
(But the camera's just fine--so it still bitches at you when you change lanes without signaling. Yeah, let's not stop THAT)
Of course, 90% of the reason you WANT Korean smart cruise (German? Bosch builds the subsystem) is specifically for kicking back during stop-and-go traffic. The style of driving snow country folks are so very fond of during a .00016 inch snowfall. How did you (bleep)ers function in the Old Country...? Wait, I was whining about me.
Anyway, stepping on the gas, then the brake, then the gas, then holding the brakes in traffic? I'ma tell you what. That's some BULLSHIT.
