What owners wrote

“The backup camera is not working and theres a glitch on the screen when on reverse gear. In addition the adaptive cruise control is not working 8-9 out of ten times.”

“Cannot use the cruise control when wearing my sunglasses. Sunglasses protect the eyes from sun damage and this is highly recommended by my ophthalmologist. This makes the protection provided by the eye data unsafe as I have to chose either cruise or sun protection. Makes no safety sense.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 2 of 28 reports involved a crash and 1 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
