Ford recalls 254k+ vehicles over rearview camera and ADAS glitches

Ford is recalling 254,640 Lincoln and Explorer models from 2022–2025 after the Image Processing Module A can reset, causing the rearview camera image and key ADAS features (pre-collision assist, lane-keeping, blind-spot monitoring) to fail and increasing crash risk. Owners will receive notices by March 30; updates can be sent OTA or installed at a dealer for free. Ford recall number is 26S21; VIN lookup available on NHTSA.gov starting March 25.

"IIHS Study Reveals Widespread Failures in Automaker ADAS Safeguards"

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has found that most partially automated Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) from various automakers, including Tesla, Ford, and Nissan, received "marginal" or "poor" ratings in a recent study. The study evaluated 14 systems and highlighted deficiencies in categories such as driver monitoring and attention reminders. The IIHS emphasized the need for better safeguards to prevent misuse and maintain driver focus, while also noting that there is little evidence to support the claim that these systems make driving safer. The top-rated systems included Lexus Teammate with Advanced Drive, GM Super Cruise, and Nissan ProPilot Assist with Navi-Link.

Porsche partners with Mobileye and Intel for autonomous driving technology.

Porsche has announced that it will use Mobileye's advanced sensor suite, SuperVision, in its future production cars. The system includes a mix of cameras and radar sensors and will enable a range of advanced driver-assistance systems, including hands-free traffic jam assists. SuperVision also includes a driver-monitoring system and Mobileye's latest EyeQ 6 system-on-a-chip to make sense of all that input. Porsche is not the only part of the Volkswagen Group to partner with Mobileye to use SuperVision. VW Commercial Vehicles will also use Mobileye tech.
