# Service bulletin S2408000056

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

- [9100351](/bulletins/11000807.md), 2024-06-04, Service bulletin: FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL; FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. "Medium Range Radar Alfa Giulia and Stelvio \- FRONT RADAR \-Temporary misalignment \(DASM\) Forward Collision Warning \(FCW\) System \- Light on instrumental panel control cluster Adaptive Cruise Control \(ACC\) System \- Light on instrumental panel We inform you that if the collision radar warning light is temporarily on and the temporary inhibition of the FCW \(Forward Collision Warning\) and the ACC \(Adaptive Cruise Control\) are both temporarily inhibited, the vehicle is conforming. If conditions are such that the radar cannot detect obstacles correctly, the system is temporarily deactivated and a dedicated message is displayed on IPC \(Instrument Panel Control Cluster\). Temporary deactivation is caused by automatic radar learning under particular conditions: Change in vehicle weight distributed unevenly. Change in vehicle geometry. Roads with limited presence of radar references \(guard rails, road signs, other vehicles on the carriage way, etc.\). Severe weather conditions \(snow fall or heavy rain\). Highly reflective conditions \(e.g., tunnels with reflective tiles, or ice or snow, or sites with road work\). Obstruction of radar due to presence of mud, dirt or ice on bumper or radar surface and/or cover. Please note that the problem solves itself and one or more of the following DTCs may be stored: ACC C1417\-78: Horizontal misalignment of sensor \- Incorrect alignment or adjustment ACC C1418\-78: Vertical misalignment of sensor \- Incorrect alignment or adjustment ACC C1409\-97: Blinded radar sensor \- Obstructed or blocked component This is not a fault but rather a message alerting the driver that the FCW and possibly ACC \(if activated\) functions are temporarily inhibited. Please be advised that if the customer complains of temporary or sporadic illumination of the anti\-collision warning light with the AEB system subsequently returning to full functionality, the vehicle is conforming and no radar adjustment is required. If the message is displayed frequently, even in the absence of weather conditions such as snow, rain,mud, or other types of obstruction, check and clean the radar surface directly by manually removing the aesthetic cover plate."

Flash: Adaptive Cruise Control \(ACC\) Updates This bulletin involves reprogramming the ACC module with the latest software available. Customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp \(MIL\) illumination. Upon further investigation the technician may find the following Diagnostic Trouble Code \(DTC\)U148A\-86 \- Implausible Data Received From Driver Assistance System Module \(DASM\) Signal Invalid. The customer may describe the following: Instrument Panel Cluster \(IPC\) disable icon switches on warnings for the Forward Collision Warning \(FCW\) informing the driver ?Heads\-up Warning Array \(HWA\) Unavailable Service Required?.The system starts working again automatically after a few seconds and/or up to 5 minutes.
