A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
I was in my new 2020 Kia Niro EV EX switching from outside right lane to inside left lane on a 4 lane highway (2 lanes northbound, 2 southbound), when the lane keeping assist shockingly jerked me across the double yellow lines into oncoming traffic! I tried to correct the situation by turning my steering wheel to get back to the lane I was jerked out of, back into the direction I was traveling, and my steering wheel seized (another complaint)! I could not control the car!
A person in the oncoming traffic lanes panicked, swerved into the lanes in the direction that I was originally traveling, so she was in oncoming traffic, and we collided--the collision sending my car sailing back into the lanes of the direction I was traveling. I was stopped when my car crashed into a chain line fence and a roadside parking sign pole. The impact was so intense, the other car's axel and wheel completely severed and that car flipped landing upside down. NO INJURIES! SO THANKFUL! It could've been deadly!
Anyone else experience this STARTLING "lane keeping assist" jerking motion (instead of the "safety tug" when the car senses "drifting")?
Also my airbags did not deploy. I guess that's another complaint.
