Personally I think it should fall back to normal cruise control rather then error out when not calibrated. The recall began April 2017. The function of the individual versions varies slightly due to the different degrees of networking and the expansion levels. Radar-based assistance systems serve as one example: while their adjustment was the concern of the respective brand workshop until recently, independent workshops with the right equipment can now also easily carry out such work. Four gap distance settings are available. Obviously, this is one of those back-up assist thingies.
A vehicle ahead cannot be detected and the system will not function when the radar signals are obstructed. Under no circumstance will your data be given to a third party.

It does appear to be a common issue though, the dealer was embarrassed that it happens so often and costs so much to get fixed. Setting the Gap Distance Note: It is your responsibility to select a gap appropriate to the driving conditions. Due to the modular expandability, users are able to calibrate vehicles of many common brands and to also use future functionalities.
