Description of the problem	I noticed a serious safety issue with subaru's lane keep assist safety feature: when driving on a busy highway over an area where the dotted line had been painted over with dark paint (by road workers to cover it up for a new lane to be painted) lane keep assist registered it as a line that still exists and forcefully steered me into the lane on my left. To avoid hitting the car in that lane, i forcefully turned to the wheel in the opposite direction. Luckily i am a healthy man who was able to steer myself back into my lane, but it turned my wheel with about three times the force of regular lane assist: i think many people including younger people and the elderly are at an even higher risk levels if they are unable to turn the wheel like i did. It was a much more forceful turn than subaru's regular 'non-urgent' lane keep assist. There were no visual obstructions present that the eyesight camera was picking up: it was registering the old line that had been painted over. This is extremely important because not only is this a safety risk for any type of road work that paints over lines during construction or repainting, but this also poses an immediate danger to life and health to people driving on roads with lines that have been painted over and left in that condition. The computer registered the dark line, meant to visually cover up the old paint, as a white line! I confirmed that this is a systemic issue and not just incidental with me. I found a post on a subaru forum where two people describe the same situation i had. I will link that below. Https://www. Ascentforums. Com/threads/lane-keep-assist-malfunction. 9530/ i tried reaching out to subaru but they did not reply. I brought this up to my subaru dealer who only checked for recalls. I need this to get the attention it deserves, people are going to die here. They probably already have.
