- Highway Assist has been improved to reduce the frequency of hands-on warnings when Highway Assist is active in stop-and-go traffic scenarios. You still must remain attentive and should be prepared to take control of the vehicle at any time while Highway Assist is engaged. For more information, please see the Owner’s Guide.
- Fixed a rare issue that caused inconsistent lane centering when Highway Assist was active.

- Driver+ Improvements:
- Increased the Highway Assist hands-off warning time period from 10 to 20 seconds for your convenience.
- Your vehicle now notifies you that rear Park Assist warnings aren’t available while the Rear accessory setting is enabled.
- Reduce the time window from 2 seconds to 1 second to engage Highway Assist when you push the drive stalk twice. This enhances usability when you initiate Adaptive Cruise Control with the first push of the drive stalk, accelerate the vehicle to the desired speed, and then push the drive stalk again to set the higher speed.
