Narrative

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The "Actually Smart Summon" failed. It is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The "Actually Smart Summon" function did not detect the post next to my vehicle as it was exiting the parking space. It immediately turn right into the post instead of pulling straight out first. I had very little reaction time. If there had been a person in the position of the post, this could have caused physical harm. My vehicle sustained damage to the front passenger door, its side mirror, and to the PPF material over these components. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I don't know Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? When opening the feature on the app, it states: "Warning: Monitor vehicle's surroundings for people, animals, or unpredictable movement."
