Replacing a windshield on a vehicle equipped with any of these advanced safety and driver assist systems?

l  Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

l  Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)

l  Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

l  Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

l  Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

l  Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)

Make sure it's an OEM replacement windshield. Depending on the model and trim level, these systems either use a camera that's mounted behind the rearview mirror or a combination of that camera and a radar unit mounted in the front bumper or grille. Installing an aftermarket windshield may cause these systems to work abnormally (the camera won't aim).

We also point this out in the owner's manual.
