Forte

  • 11,000 miles
My 2017 Kia Forte S has forward collision warning system (fcws) and autonomous emergency braking system. The fcws does not work in that it does not warn me of impending collision hazzards. I have no idea if the aebs works as the fcws triggers that system. Kia techs have not shown me that it works; I.e. warning audible nor warning image on lcd display. I have tried running up on a car in front of me until about 10 feet back at 50-60 mph with no warning then I manually applied the brakes.
