| Description of the problem | Blind spot sensors are going off when raining! We had this checked out by the dealer twice and nothing was done. On second visit i was told this was going to happen during inclimate weather as it is normal. There were several other complaints as well i let him know this was unacceptable. There was no mention of this in the auto manuals nor from the sales staff. I purchased the extra safety features to keep my family safe. These features are needed especially during inclimate weather. We have no confidence in our equipment's safety features as they are misleading. |
