Does anyone else have any experience on how their Forward Collision Alert is working good experiences preferably but bad also?
I am looking to purchase a new 2014 truck. I stopped by my Chevrolet dealer a few days ago to drive a 2014 Silverado 1500 with Forward Collision Alert. Was introduced to the so called truck sales expert and unfortunately at the end of my test drive was not impressed with the collision system.
Had a person that I did not notice or see, that walked by just in front of the truck as we were waiting to pull out of a service station driveway. I did not nor did the truck notice them as they were walking by. I only saw her as she cleared the front of the truck. Never did see any indication on the windshield at any time during the test drive. Did notice some small symbols on the speedometer area that flashed – would be sure to get into an accident if I were using that to detect approaching trouble. Did feel the seat vibrate a few time as I intentionally drifted out of a lane. The vibration alert was almost unfelt on the left side of my seat, right side was somewhat better.
Thanks
