I disabled the driving assist mess within days of getting our first new car. When I’d swerve to the middle of a two lane road to give extra room for someone to check her mailbox, the car tried to help me back to the center of my lane and almost run her over. The same with avoiding potholes and such.

To: Tell It Right

Wife’s new Volvo is a technology nightmare. Bought one in 2023 had all kinds of issues, would slam on the brakes doing 60 and say collision avoidance but nothing there. This happened numerous times. It would slam on the brakes backing out of the garage with nothing there, lost all audio and displays for several hours. POS and finally I gave Volvo an ultimatum full refund or replace the car. They gave us a 2024 at no cost difference. Minor problems on this one so far but you can’t drive for 90 minutes when it does a S/W upgrade. All Google controlled and everything I can is disabled and I told the dealer I will not setup user account in the car..we’re on guest mode.
