What are the drawbacks of installing front radar?
2 Answers
The drawback of installing front radar is poor compatibility. Below is relevant information about automotive radar: 1. Introduction: Automotive radar, as the name suggests, is radar used for cars or other ground motor vehicles. Therefore, it includes various radars based on different technologies (such as laser, ultrasonic, microwave) with different functions. 2. Collision avoidance radar: This type of radar can measure dangerous obstacles on the road ahead of the vehicle that may cause collisions based on the vehicle's current direction and speed, making it suitable for situations with low atmospheric visibility and less-than-ideal judgment (such as short following distances or high speeds).
To be honest, many car owners end up regretting installing front parking sensors. The main issue is frequent false alarms, especially when encountering angled curbs or low bollards - they often trigger sudden 'beep beep beep' warnings that put drivers on edge. Some poorly adjusted sensors become unreliable with just light rain or when covered by mud splashes, requiring manual cleaning which is quite troublesome. The most critical concern is wiring - if installed carelessly by unskilled technicians through improper tapping or wire splicing, it may blow the vehicle's circuit fuses or even interfere with electronic signals of critical systems like ABS and tire pressure monitoring modules, potentially creating safety hazards instead. Those fancy features advertised by modification shops often prove far less useful in actual driving than simply paying more attention to your surroundings.
