Forward Collision Assistance icon on initiation

Forward Collision Assistance icon on start up

I am hoping I can get some advice from the MG4 community. I was just experienced a weird lot of alerts in my MG4 - from lane assist not working, 'hand brake' not working, Forward Collision Assistance not working, air bags not working, red SOS icon. Felt a bit dramatic TBH. I waited, switched everything off and on again, and finally after a short drive (with air bags icon and SOS icons showing) everything was back to normal, except that the FCA yellow icon now flashes up briefly on the dash every time I start the car, but it quickly goes off (2-3 seconds).

Any advice on whether this is a significant issue or nothing to worry about. My dealership have advised I bring it in for a diagnostic check. That sounds like a good idea, but I want to make sure I am not over-reacting.

Thanks in advance

John

Welcome to the forum @Johnnybiam35, make sure your windscreen and front camera are clean, a dirty windscreen often throws up several errors and warnings.

Agree, also could be weather related (given the amount of rain & wind this week) as a small bit of moisture could have gotten into a connector which is causing an electrical blip etc.

I've had this before too... just a random string of warnings when I got in the car. I powered it off from the menu inside the infotainment system, waited 5 minutes and it was back to normal.
