## Narrative
on 10/9/2025 I pulled out of my driveway and less than 300 feet from my house I struck a deer. Weather was approx 50 degree and clear. There was no dew on my windows as I park my car in the garage. There was approximately $6200 worth of damage done to my vehicle and what concerned me the most was, the car never engaged the emergency stop. I mentioned this to the insurance company and they really had nothing to say. I have had bicyclists get too close to me on the road and my vehicle engaged the emergency stop.   After repairs were done on the vehicle, they had a third party come in to do a calibration of all the sensors. He could not perform the calibration due to #PIT6274: Error Message Referring to Vision Camera system with DTC B1C48 - (Nov 4, 2024).   I just dropped my vehicle off at the dealer and mentioned this to them and they are claiming there is nothing they can do about it. I started looking around online and have seen several other people complain about this and I knew it affected my Adaptive Cruise Control as I have gotten this error a couple times before and I just thought my window was dirty. What I did not know is this also affected my emergency stop as it does not tell me that in the warning. If this is a known issue, this is a serious safety concern and to have the dealer tell me there is nothing they can do is not acceptable. If the camera was functioning properly that morning, there is a good chance that I would not have gotten into an accident.
