The collision warning does NOT work on boxes or any strange objects on the road. It must be another car or motorbike which is detected by the camera system in the i3 because of the shape and relecting elements.
Hey! I own an i3 and with the forward collision avoidance the car alerted me, started to stop the car (until I took over braking) and I was successfully able to stop before rear ending a stopped car (they had hit the car in front of them and slammed on the brakes) with my cruise control set to 60mph. Unfortunately the 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan behind me didn’t have time to stop. Lol. I’ve also had a teenager run out in front of the car while driving through an intersection and the car stopped and beeped at me like crazy! It works well, however my only complaint is sometimes when cars pass me, or a car is coming my way on a 2 way street with the cruise control on, the car thinks that I am going to hit them and it automatically applies the brakes. That happens very seldom, though. I think that since you used a box the car was not able to register that there was an obstacle.

I guess that's a FAIL on your part?..

I think the car is smarter than he is
🤣🤣🤣
Mine doesn’t stop either , we’re you able to make it work ? Thanks for the post
im sure in their process of the FCA development, they thought "lets test it to make it foolproof with cardboard boxes!"
Just rear ended a van in traffic. No alert no stop which trigged often normally.
Tonterías.
