   Multiple warning lights, all for the safety system: ACC, automatic emergency braking, etc. I am told by the dealer that this is due to a faulty forward camera. Looking at the NHTSA site and other forums, this is a VERY common issue and should be addressed.

   This is the second time I’ve had to bring my car in. I have a variety of different warning signs popping up and I see that I’m not the only person that this is happened to when I look at Reddit online the malfunction is somewhere within the car system and it’s because of a windshield camera, which has nothing to do with the, warning signs that I am getting on my car. This needs to be recalled and fixed for free.
