Strange behavior with Lane Assist

[ronniebell]

There's a country highway I often drive in rural Missouri. Speed limit is 55 mph with lots of gentle curves. Even though my Lane Assist (LA) is off, my Telluride S seems to follow the curves by itself. I can take my hands off the will (to some extent) and the Telluride will pretty much adjust to the curves by itself. Is this really happening or am I on drugs?

Is this with or without cruise on?

You’re only going to get steering interventions under two circumstances: with lane keeping assist (LKA) enabled (button to left of steering wheel) – it will show the glyph that looks like a road. Or, if you have smart cruise on along with LFA (lane following assist, turned on or off in user settings via instrument cluster) – it will show the glyph that looks like a steering wheel.

If you think you’re getting steering interventions from the vehicle when either of those glyphs is not illuminated in green, you may be on drugs.

Time to visit the dealer if that's the case? I mean the Kia dealership!

Good point. I think I had the smart cruise on. I use it very frequently. Thanks for the info. All is well. I'm not on drugs after all.
