The complaint counts, systems and recalls below still stand on their own. The most-reported system is collision avoidance (22 complaints), typically at 1.3 yr.

The EyeSight Assist appears to be working intermittently since the car was purchased. It stops working without any apparent reason, regardless of whether it is a sunny day, cloudy, or rainy.

Even if I am within the lane, it still makes warning sounds at times and shows yellow lines on the screen.
