At low outside temperatures (below 40 degrees F) and slow driving speeds (i.e. when parking, maneuvering)with a large steering angle, the front end can be slightly axially misaligned. This can be felt (jerking)/ heard via an acoustic acknowledgement (clunk) as seen at the 11 second mark of the video. See attached video V36 01 21.

Humming noise while steering column extends in the axial direction. The sound is only heard when the steering column is extended, not when the steering column is retracted.

B5117222022-12-12. Service bulletin. FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE; VISIBILITY; LANE DEPARTURE; STEERING; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Due to the semiconductor supply, the Local Interconnect Network module in either of the exterior mirrors was switched to another controller. That one provides an imprecise voltage measurement, which the main controller interprets as a fault. For the driving cycle, the customer may lose the display in either mirror and the Lane Change Warning function and, if installed, other functions such as- Side collision warning; Lane Change Assistant; Steering and Lane Control Assistant; Emergency Lane Assistant Hands Off 60 Assistant.
B6615192022-05-16. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT; LANE DEPARTURE; STEERING. The steering intervention for Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is too strong (severe), which can create an uncomfortable feeling for the driver. Background: Steering intervention helps keep the vehicle in the lane if the system detects that a lane marking has been crossed. The steering intervention can be noticed on the steering wheel and can be manually overridden at any time.

The summaries are NHTSA's. Each bulletin's page links NHTSA's copy of the manufacturer's document.
