Sorry, but working… then not working …then working on a clear sunny day without a vehicle in front? Or lighting up like Armageddon when stopped at a light with a Camry in front of me? It is June in Illinois…no ice, no rain, and a clean windshield.
working perfectly for first 3000 miles, then mostly not at all. Then “aligned” and working until 8000 miles, now intermittent functionality. Read original post.

The radar sensor is built in to the CCM which is what detects objects such as vehicles in front of you for the adaptive cruise control system to control the space between you and other vehicles. The camera is used for lane keeping( by seeing the lines on the road, or as more common here in Illinois where North1250 and I live , not seeing them because they are not there..)) and for collision alert by seeing something like a child or pedestrian, another vehicle, etc." jump" out in front of you. So yes, you are correct, the "box" in the grill is the Adaptive cruise control( hence the " ACC" on the box)module which has the radar sensor in it,

System is working less than 50% of the time.
They likely aren't seeing this. Did you send them a PM?3FTTW8E39PRA23347

i would check the connector itself behind the grill for the CCM. It is most likely corroded specially if you use touch less car washes frequently. I’ve already replaced mine at 34k. Water made its way down the jacket too.

Anyone else? The system worked flawlessly for the first 3000 miles. And then stopped abruptly in the middle of a drive. Stopping the car and restarting restores functionality… Sometimes. Took it to the dealer and they “aligned the sensor“ and then it worked again until about 8000 miles It is very glitchy. Sometimes will start to work if I turn off cruise control and then reset. But it will stop after five or 10 minutes again. The dealer keeps telling me to wash my windshield. The car is showroom clean in all situations. To use cruise control then I have to go to settings and select normal. I drive a lot at highway speeds, and the system is going to kill me if it stops working.
Brand new here and I have the same issue with the ACC and pre collision. I only have 70 miles total and this is already an issue. Everything is clean and clear drove it 30 miles works great. Stopped twice at stores and now it doesn't work again. I got my finger in back of the front cover for the ACC and I feel something moving. But sure if it's the unit or wiring. Thanks for listening.

I have had it at the dealer now three times, and they are going to replace the cruise control module. Will let you know if that works. My dealer is Weber Ford in Granite City IL. Service manager is Rob Smith.

So, if anybody still cares everybody was wrong. To be clear, this failed at 3000 miles and again at 8000 miles after being fixed… all of my driving has been in spring and summer clear weather and the system would simply crap out.
Now at 15,000 miles I have been driving with a system that has worked only for 10 to 15 minutes after I start up, After four visits, they finally replaced the cruise control module, and a BROKEN BRACKET that I think was damaged during production.
