Forward Collision Warning into Sun

[TimothyN]

I was driving into low sun when a warning briefly came up that Forward Collision Warning and Active Braking were unavailable.

Just when they are most needed!

I'm surprised that they are wholly visual spectrum and don't also use radar.

There is no front facing radar on the MGS5 - sadly. Only backward for rear cross traffic alert and rear cross traffic break. Forward is vision only.

From 2021 Tesla have stopped fitting forward radar and now rely on a camera based system.
