This is worst damn "feature" on the vehicle! Works well on my Lexus and Tesla (although I never use it...turned it off), and just terrible on the Sprinter. And I can't shut it off! You have to disable it EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE! WTF? You can turn off the blind spot monitor for good, but you CAN'T turn off Active Lane Keeping Assist and have it stay off. [I know the short-cut to turning it off, but I shouldn't have to do this every. damn. time. I. drive.]
Sprinter slams on the brakes and swerves to the left every time go into a right-hand merge lane to get off an expressway (which we have plenty of in my area). Dashed lines, no cars or traffic (so no blinker), and then HOLY SH$T! What just happened???
Maybe there just aren't enough of these vans out there with ALKA to have a bunch of pissed off drivers...I don't know. But it simply is NOT SAFE. If someone is exiting behind me an I fail to use my blinker, that driver is going to get a big surprise that neither of us want. All I want is to be able to shut it off permanently, but I CAN'T.
Rant over...at least for now!
