Jeep Vehicles w/ Adaptive Cruise Control (8 Popular Models)

Adaptive cruise control is increasingly common in many mainstream vehicles, including Jeeps.

The following Jeep SUVs and trucks have adaptive cruise control or conventional cruise control system.

Check the corresponding tables to see the relevant model years when the system became available.

Adaptive Cruise Control vs. Cruise Control

The more-basic cruise control in older vehicles helps maintain a steady cruising speed for a relaxing long-distance drive.

The more sophisticated adaptive cruise control (ACC) enhances the conventional cruise control system by altering the vehicle’s speed to match the car ahead subject to the driver’s set speed, which is excellent for highway cruising and avoiding collisions.

Newer Jeeps have the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go system, adjusting the vehicle’s speed to maintain a pre-selected distance from the car ahead.

While Jeep makes among the most capable off-road SUVs with cruise control for on-road cruising, the following alternatives may work better if you want a truck instead:

  • Ford SUVs and trucks with cruise control .
  • Chevy SUVs and trucks with cruise control .
  • GMC SUVs and trucks with cruise control .
  • Ram trucks with cruise control .

Alternatively, some of these mainstream automakers also produce SUVs, although with comparatively moderate off-road capabilities:

  • Honda SUVs with ACC .
  • Toyota vehicles with ACC .
  • Hyundai vehicles with ACC .
  • Kia vehicles with ACC .
  • Volkswagen vehicles with ACC .

Jeep SUVs with Adaptive Cruise Control

#1 jeep renegade.

The Renegade is a subcompact and Jeep’s smallest SUV; it isn’t the cheapest, but it’s one of the most adventure-ready in the class.

Since its 2015 debut, the Jeep Renegade has had cruise control only in the upper trims.

The cruise control system became standard in the Jeep Renegade from 2019 and beyond, including the Trailhawk model.

#2 Jeep Compass

Although it’s still a subcompact SUV, the Compass is slightly larger than the Renegade.

Since 2021, Jeep Compass has had adaptive cruise control in the pricier trims and basic cruise control in the less expensive ones.

Jeep Compass models from 2011 to 2020 had standard cruise control, while older ones only had the system in the higher trim levels.

#3 Jeep Cherokee

This small SUV’s history has two halves, with 2014 seeing its return after over a decade of absence.

Newer Jeep Cherokees from 2022 onwards have had adaptive cruise control in the higher trims and conventional cruise control in the lower ones.

From 2014 to 2021, all Jeep Cherokee models had cruise control.

#4 Jeep Wrangler

This small SUV had earned a reputation as the most iconic off-road warrior with superior capability on rugged terrains.

Since 2021, the Jeep Wrangler has had adaptive cruise control in the Rubicon 392 and Unlimited Rubicon 392, depending on the model year; other trims had conventional cruise control, the Sport trim included.

Every Jeep Wrangler from 2011 to 2020 had standard cruise control, while models from 2007 to 2010 only had the system in the costlier trims.

#5 Jeep Grand Cherokee

The midsize two-row Jeep Grand Cherokee had adaptive cruise control in the upper trims from 2012 until 2022 when the system became standard.

Older Grand Cherokee models from 2001 to 2011 had standard cruise control.

#6 Jeep Wagoneer

Since Jeep introduced the full-size three-row Wagoneer in 2022, the SUV has had adaptive cruise control in its higher trims and basic cruise control in the lower ones.

#7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

Unlike the regular Wagoneer, the more upscale Jeep Grand Wagoneer models have adaptive cruise control as a standard provision.

Jeep Truck with Adaptive Cruise Control

#8 jeep gladiator.

The Jeep Gladiator is the only convertible pickup truck in the midsize class. It beat competitors such as the Honda Ridgeline and Toyota Tacoma – both have adaptive cruise control – with greater off-road prowess.

All Jeep Gladiator models have cruise control as standard.

Unfortunately, no Jeep Gladiator has the more-sophisticated adaptive cruise control system.

Adaptive cruise control calibration

  • Add to quote

Does anyone have the instructions for recalibrating the ACC? It's at the dealership right now and they said they couldn't get the ACC to set because of the glare from water on the road (it rained all day). Not sure if that is just an excuse for not getting it finished like they promised or if the tech just doesn't know how to reset it. It never had issues working in the rain before.  

From the 2014 FSM: One fixed ball stud (4) and two adjustable ball studs (3) secure the sensor housing through a snap fit into three molded plastic ball socket clips installed in the mounting bracket. The sensor pivots on the fixed ball stud while the two adjustable ball studs allow the sensor to be vertically aligned after installation using an ACC vertical alignment special tool and a 3.5 millimeter hex nut driver special tool. Horizontal alignment is performed electronically using a diagnostic scan tool during a ten minute drive at a steady, predetermined speed following completion of the vertical alignment. STANDARD PROCEDURE - ADAPTIVE SPEED CONTROL SENSOR ALIGNMENT Special Tools: Click to display a list of tools used in this procedure Click here to launch the form to order any tools you need. 10243-2 - Driver, Nut Originally Shipped In Kit Number(s) 10243. The adaptive speed control sensor (also known as the Adaptive Cruise Control/ACC sensor or module, or the radar sensor or module) requires alignment whenever the ACC sensor is removed and reinstalled, whenever front end structural repairs are performed or whenever a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) indicates ACC sensor adjustment is required. Sensor alignment consists of performing the mechanical vertical alignment described in the following procedure, followed by the electronic horizontal alignment that is performed with a diagnostic scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic information. VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR SENSOR VERTICAL ALIGNMENT Repair or replace any ineffective, worn or damaged body components. Repair any loose or cracked fascia components that might interfere with the sensor field of view. The radar dome of the sensor module should be roughly centered in the opening of the fascia. Verify proper tire inflation pressures. Remove any accumulations of mud, snow or ice from the vehicle underbody. Verify that there is no load in the vehicle (cargo or passengers), except for the driver. NOTE: The vehicle MUST be placed upon a wheel alignment or frame rack to achieve the proper sensor vertical alignment results. If a wheel alignment or frame rack is not available, then a verified level surface can be used. When using the wheel alignment rack, the fore - after specifications must be within 0 (+/- 0.2) degrees. Rock the vehicle side-to-side three times to allow the suspension to stabilize. Jounce the front and rear suspension three times by pushing downward on the front and rear bumpers and releasing. Verify correct vehicle suspension height. SENSOR VERTICAL ALIGNMENT The adaptive speed control sensor (4) (also known as the Adaptive Cruise Control/ACC sensor or module and the radar sensor or module) is located on a bracket (6) secured near the center of the underside of the front bumper support member of the Front End Module (FEM) behind the front fascia. Unsnap and remove the molded plastic ACC fascia closeout bezel in the center of the grille texture insert of the lower air intake opening of the front fascia to gain access to the ACC adjustment screws. Remove the smaller plastic bezel (mirror cover) from over the front of the sensor housing. Using standard glass cleaner and a clean soft towel, remove any dirt or road salt from the convex molded dark plastic lens (radar dome) on the face of the sensor as well as from the suction cup of the vertical alignment tool (3). Carefully slide the vertical alignment tool over the sensor housing until the suction cup rests against the lens of the sensor. NOTE: It may take several attempts to get the suction cup of the special tool to fasten securely to the sensor. If necessary, lightly wet the suction cup with clean water to help improve adhesion. Depress the plunger (1) of the vertical alignment tool to engage the suction cup and attach the special tool securely to the lens of the sensor. Use the 3.5 millimeter hex nut driver (Special Tool No. 10243-2 ) to rotate the vertical adjustment ball stud (2) that secures the sensor (1) to the mounting bracket as necessary to center the bubble of the spirit level between the two center marks on the vial of the level located on the top of the vertical alignment tool. Depress the center release button of the special tool to release the suction cup from the sensor lens and remove the special tool from the sensor. Perform the ACC sensor horizontal alignment using a diagnostic scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic information. Reinstall the smaller plastic bezel (mirror cover) onto the front of the sensor housing. Care must be taken to orient the bezel properly to ensure proper retention. Reinstall the molded plastic ACC fascia closeout bezel into the center of the grille texture insert of the lower air intake opening of the front fascia.  

Thanks, Roy. 3 days and 3 hours of labor and 4 road tests later the ACC is working again. At least they generously offered to split the $330.00 bill in half. Still, the first visit a month ago, they charged $100 diagnosis time to tell me I should replace the whole unit until I took it back and told them the bracket wasn't cracked, one of the adjust screws was bumped out. Just venting but I would have done this at home if I had the specific scan tool to align the sensor. Makes me miss the '02 WJ at times like this.  

Hi guys, I have a similar problem with my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The ACC module got bumped and is now loose in its mountings and as a result doesn't work properly. In addition on of the adjustment screws is bent. Do you perhaps have a part code for the screws so that I can order more, thats if they can even be replaced. I was also told that I should replace the whole unit, but Im sure the problem can be solved alot more cheaply. Would you mind reposting the link for all the tools / parts required, I cant seem to locate the link in this thread. Thanks for time and help.  

ColdCase

I don't see the adjustment "ball" screws called out separately. They say the ball studs cannot be repaired. The ball clips are repairable. The attaching screw is a standard Hex Head, M6X1.00X20.00. Some info here; http://collision.alldata.com/online...Group_LLC/Position_Statements/chrysleracc.htm  

Thanks for the reply ColdCase. Are the attaching screws (Hex Head M6 x 1.00 x 20.00) for securing the ACC bracket / backing plate? Based on the fact that the ball studs can be repaired or replaced, I taking it that my only option is to but a complete new ACC module and have it fitted?  

Thats what the book says. I have not read of anyone repairing or replacing the ball studs.  

found this but not a photo. https://moparonlineparts.com/mop-parts/#parts 68256205AA (Bracket Forward Collision Warning). I looked for a bit but couldn't find a picture - I tracked one down before for the 2013. This could be just for the bracket cover - not the mounting piece.

Jeep Adaptive Cruise Control: Your Comprehensive Guide to Safe Driving

If you’re driving a Jeep vehicle equipped with a smart cruise control system, like the Jeep Compass, using this feature is pretty straightforward. Let’s dive into how to use the smart cruise control system in your Jeep vehicle.

On the steering wheel, you’ll find the buttons for the cruise control system. The main button activates the system, and once it’s turned on, you can set the desired speed. The distance indicator allows you to choose how far you want to be from the vehicle in front of you. You can increase, decrease, cancel, or resume the set speed as needed.

Additionally, Jeep vehicles come with Highway Drive Assist, which helps keep the vehicle balanced in its lane. The system is not self-driving but provides lane-keeping assistance, gently nudging the vehicle back into its lane if necessary. The digital cluster screen shows relevant information related to the cruise control system.

When using adaptive cruise control, the vehicle automatically adjusts its speed based on the car in front of it. If the lead vehicle slows down, your Jeep will decelerate, and once the road clears, it will resume the set speed. The system is particularly useful for long-distance trips, offering a more relaxed driving experience.

Jeep’s smart cruise control system can bring your vehicle to a complete stop and restart as needed, making it a valuable feature for both highway driving and city commuting. Whether it’s for safety or convenience, this system provides a smooth driving experience.

If you encounter any issues or have questions about using the smart cruise control system in your Jeep vehicle, feel free to leave a comment. I’ll be happy to address your concerns and provide further assistance.

In conclusion, the smart cruise control system in Jeep vehicles offers a range of useful features, making driving both comfortable and convenient. If you found this guide helpful, be sure to share it with others. Until next time, drive safely!

What is the smart cruise control system in Jeep Vehicles?

The smart cruise control system in Jeep Vehicles allows you to set a preferred speed and distance from the vehicle in front of you. It also includes Highway Drive Assist for lane balancing and other lane-keeping features.

How do you activate the smart cruise control system?

To activate the smart cruise control system, press the designated button on the steering wheel. From there, you can set the speed and distance you prefer and make adjustments as needed during driving.

What happens when the car in front slows down or comes to a stop?

If the car in front slows down or comes to a stop, the adaptive cruise control system in Jeep Vehicles will automatically adjust your speed to maintain the set distance, including coming to a complete stop if necessary.

Adaptive cruise control

  • Add to quote

Our 2014 grand Cherokee has for a couple of years regularly had the adaptive cruise control as well as regular cruise control disconnect while driving with no cars around and for no apparent reason. At times it will do this every 5 -30 miles and at times it works fine. It was fine for the first year or so. We have had it looked at by our local jeep dealer a number of times,,,every oil change etc. Recently the collision warning and automatic braking has engaged - also for no apparent reason and is potentially dangerous. At the last recall service the dealership service manager drove it over night, couldn't replicate the problem and "Couldn't find a code" indicating a problem. We are so dissatisfied we are considering trading it in for a different make of vehicle. Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated. Thank you  

Tthere's nothing more frustrating than service department saying "it didn't happen to me" so it must be your imagination. Maybe try new dealer, my service department has been real good but you are right to be very frustrated. Hope you get it worked out.  

That is very frustrating. You’ll likely have to video it and show the service manager or ask nicely if they can spare a tech to ride around with you for 30+ minutes on a slow day. Keep us posted!  

schmieg

This has been an intermittent problem with a lot of GC's since 2014. Mine had it and it was the FCW system shutting down that caused it. The dealer could not replicate it, though it happened once as I was leaving the shop and took it right back. They acknowledged the problem, but it corrected itself before they could hook it up to anything. I have no idea whether this is related, but about a year ago, I removed the front fascia and put a Chief Lower Front Guard on. I liked the looks of that so the front fascia has been sitting in my garage ever since. I have not had the problem return since installing the Chief guard and not reinstalling the front fascia. Your mileage may vary.

Thank you all for figuring out how to turn it on!! I ordered my Speed Control Switch and I will install it next week. Hopefully it goes as smooth as described here.  

after having this done....i wonder if its possible to replace the active drive selector with on of the trailhawk and enable the hill desend control

  • New Transfer Case Switch 5XF15LXHAA or 5XF15LXHAB (I got mine on aliexpress for 38$ and it works fine)
  • 9 speed automatic transmission
  • AlfaOBD and adapter cables (I use an OBDLink EX and an extra "grey" adapter to complete proxy alignment)
  • Axle ratio of 4334 (You can check your axle ratio with AlfaOBD in the Body Computer in the status/faults tab and click on "system status" next view log and search for Axle ratio)
  • Use a plastic prying tool or credit card to undo the clips of the shiny black frame (I started at the top right corner and worked my way down and then to the other side)
  • Put the shifter in neutral so you can lift the shiny black plastic a little more to access the metal clips holding the Transfer Case Switch in place.
  • Undo the 2 left metal clips first and then the bottom one, it should come out after that with some wiggling.
  • Disconnect it and put the new one in and just push everyting back into place.

Laurens said: It seems to be working. When I push 4wd low, it turns FCW and ESC off so it definitely does something. When I go to rock, it is locked in second gear and you can't change it. However I expected it to lock in first gear in rock mode because that is what you read everywhere. I made a new thread to ask trailhawk owners about this behaviour because nobody seems to know what 4wd low exactly does. I can get it to lock in first gear by going to mud mode and putting the shifter to manual shifting (mud starts in first gear) and then change to rock mode with the shifter still in manual. When I do it like this it is locked in first gear and putting it back to automatic shifting still keeps it in first gear. Click to expand...

how does exactly adaptive cruise control work?

  • Add to quote

Does the regular cruise control have to be turned on? Does the white sign in the corner have to be showed to be active? I tried at a highway ramp and local stop sign, it didn't kick in. I used 4 bars, but nothing happened when moving close to the front car like within a few feet.  

Check this out.  

Yeah. I saw that a couple of times. I was hoping it works for local roads. Like if you are too close to front car at red lights, seems not working that way. they should develop the function though. Beep when too close to front car, the radar is already there. Should not just limit on cruise control!!  

I use ACC daily, but it needs improvement big time. The sensors seem to be not wide enough, so when switching lanes, it doesn't pick up the car in adjoining lane and goes zoomie, so you always have to either cancel it, or be prepared to brake. I would prefer the lane changing speed to be gradual, as it seems to be much safer. I've also had a handful of times where there was no one in front of me, and it slows down for some reason, but it's only for a second and it gets back up to speed. Still I highly recommend it, even with its flaws, as it makes driving much easier. Traffic is not a bother to me anymore. In response to your question, this current ACC system, you have to be moving. If the vehicle is stopped for a few seconds, ACC will cancel, and you will be in control. If you are already stopped, it will not work either, as you foot is on the brakes, and that automatically cancels it.  

I agree with you. I just hope it helps with rush hours in local roads. They definitely needs to improve it. Works good on highway. but not in local with frequent stops.

michail

You have to turn it on first, lol. But it's not quite up to what I've experienced from other manufacturers. My big annoyance with it is when a car in front changes to the right lane and slows down. It will brake hard to match even though it's in a different lane. My prior Ford just seemed much smarter. But it does work nicely for passing, as soon as you hit the turn signal it starts accelerating.  

IdahoJOAT

I love ours. I leave it at the max distance setting and it's a joy.  

It needs to be done a better job. Comparing Tesla auto pilot can do so much with $10k while this piece causes us 2k+ and can't even handle local driving very well, that's not even close to 1/5 work of Tesla autopilot.

2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Owners Manual - ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) — IF EQUIPPED

Adaptive cruise control (acc) — if equipped.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving conve- nience provided by cruise control while traveling on high- ways and major roadways. However, it is not a safety system and not designed to prevent collisions. Speed Control func- tion performs differently. Please refer to the proper section within this chapter.

ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant need to reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor and a forward facing camera designed to detect a vehicle directly ahead of you.

The Cruise Control system has two control modes:

Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control will not react to preceding vehicles. Always be aware of the mode selected.

You can change the mode by using the Cruise Control buttons. The two control modes function differently. Always confirm which mode is selected.

(Continued)

The Speed Control buttons (located on the right side of the steering wheel) operate the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Adaptive Cruise Control Buttons

1 — Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control On/Off 2 — SET (+)/Accel

8 — CANC/Cancel

Any chassis / suspension or tire size modifications to the vehicle will affect the performance of the Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward Collision Warning system.

You can only engage ACC if the vehicle speed is above 0 mph (0 km/h).

The minimum set speed for the ACC system is 20 mph (32 km/h).

When the system is turned on and in the ready state, the instrument cluster displays “ACC Ready.”

When the system is off, the instrument cluster displays “Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off.”

You cannot engage ACC under the following conditions:

Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button. The ACC menu in the instrument cluster displays “ACC Ready.”

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Adaptive Cruise Control Ready

To turn the system off, push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button again. At this time, the system will turn off and the instrument cluster displays “Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off.”

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Adaptive Cruise Control Off

When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, push the SET (+) button or the SET (-) button and release. The instrument cluster display will display the set speed.

If the system is set when the vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be defaulted to 20 mph (32 km/h). If the system is set when the vehicle speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be the current speed of the vehicle.

ACC cannot be set if there is a stationary vehicle in front of your vehicle in close proximity.

Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. If you do not, the vehicle may continue to accelerate beyond the set speed. If this occurs:

The following conditions cancel the system:

The system will turn off and clear the set speed in memory if:

If there is a set speed in memory push the RES (resume) button and then remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. The instrument cluster display will display the last set speed.

To Increase Speed

While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pushing the SET (+) button.

The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings. Refer to “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for more information. The speed increment shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):

U.S. Speed (mph)

Metric Speed (km/h)

increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 km/h.

To Decrease Speed

While ACC is set, the set speed can be decreased by pushing the SET (-) button.

The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings. Refer to “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for more information. The speed decre- ment shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):

The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between four bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and one bar (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calcu- lates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance setting displays in the instrument cluster display.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Distance Setting 4 Bars (Longest)

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Distance Setting 3 Bars (Long)

Distance Setting 2 Bars (Medium) Distance Setting 1 Bar (Short)

To increase the distance setting, push the Distance Setting — Increase button and release. Each time the button is pushed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer).

To decrease the distance setting, push the Distance Setting — Decrease button and release. Each time the button is pushed, the distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter).

If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will maintain the set speed. If a slower moving vehicle is detected in the same lane, the instrument cluster displays the “Sensed Vehicle Indicator” icon, and the system adjusts vehicle speed auto- matically to maintain the distance setting, regardless of the set speed.

The vehicle will then maintain the set distance until:

The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited; however, the driver can always apply the brakes manually, if necessary.

The brake lights will illuminate whenever the ACC system applies the brakes.

A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC predicts that its maximum braking level is not sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will

flash in the instrument cluster display and a chime will sound while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking capacity.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Brake Alert

The “BRAKE!” Screen in the instrument cluster display is a warning for the driver to take action and does not necessarily mean that the Forward Collision Warning system is applying the brakes autonomously.

When driving with ACC engaged and following a vehicle, the system will provide an additional acceleration up to the ACC set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This addi- tional acceleration is triggered when the driver utilizes the left turn signal and will only be active when passing on the left hand side.

If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume motion without the need for any driver action.

If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, the ACC with Stop system will cancel and the brakes will release. A cancel message will display on the instrument cluster display and produce a warning chime. Driver intervention will be required at this moment.

While ACC with Stop is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seat belt is unbuckled or the driver door is opened, the ACC with Stop system will cancel and the brakes

will release. A cancel message will display on the instrument cluster display and produce a warning chime. Driver inter- vention will be required at this moment.

The instrument cluster display will show the current ACC system settings. The instrument cluster display is located in the center of the instrument cluster. The information it displays depends on ACC system status.

Push the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button (located on the steering wheel) until one of the following appears in the instrument cluster display:

When ACC is deactivated, the display will read “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”

When ACC is activated, but the vehicle speed setting has not been selected, the display will read “Adaptive Cruise Control Ready.”

Adaptive Cruise Control Set

When the SET (+) or the SET (-) button (located on the steering wheel) is pushed, the display will read “ACC SET.”

When ACC is set, the set speed will show in the instrument cluster display.

The ACC screen may display once again if any ACC activity occurs, which may include any of the following:

The instrument cluster display will return to the last display selected after five seconds of no ACC display activity

The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor” warning will display and also a chime will indicate when conditions temporarily limit system performance.

This most often occurs at times of poor visibility, such as in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system may also become temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these cases, the instrument cluster display will display “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor” and the system will deactivate.

The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor” message can sometimes be displayed while driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflective tiles, or ice and snow). The ACC system will recover after the vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when the radar is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this warning may temporarily occur.

If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor” warning is active Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is still available. For additional information refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in this section.

If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should examine the sensor. It may require cleaning or removal of an obstruction. The sensor is located in the center of the vehicle behind the lower grille.

To keep the ACC System operating properly, it is important to note the following maintenance items:

When the condition that deactivated the system is no longer present, the system will return to the “Adaptive Cruise Control Off” state and will resume function by simply reac- tivating it.

The “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind- shield” warning will display and also a chime will indicate when conditions temporarily limit system performance. This most often occurs at times of poor visibility, such as in snow or heavy rain and fog. The ACC system may also become temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt, or ice on windshield and fog on the inside of glass. In these cases, the instrument cluster display will display “ACC/ FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield” and the system will have degraded performance.

The “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind- shield” message can sometimes be displayed while driving in adverse weather conditions. The ACC/FCW system will recover after the vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when the camera is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this warning may temporarily occur.

If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should examine the windshield and the camera located on the back side of the inside rear view mirror. They may require cleaning or removal of an obstruction.

When the condition that created limited functionality is no longer present, the system will return to full functionality.

If the “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind- shield” message occurs frequently (e.g. more than once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or other obstruc- tion, have the windshield and forward facing camera inspected at your authorized dealer.

If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster displays “ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required” or “Cruise/ FCW Unavailable Service Required”, there may be an internal system fault or a temporary malfunction that limits ACC functionality. Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal conditions, ACC will be temporarily unavail- able. If this occurs, try activating ACC again later, following an ignition cycle. If the problem persists, see an authorized dealer.

In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert and may need to intervene.

Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC.

ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane that is offset from your direct line of travel, or a vehicle merging in from a side lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead. The offset vehicle may move in and out of the line of travel, which can cause your vehicle to brake or accel- erate unexpectedly.

Offset Driving Condition Example

When driving on a curve with ACC engaged, the system may decrease the vehicle speed and acceleration for stability reasons, with no target vehicle detected. Once the vehicle is out of the curve the system will resume your original set speed. This is a part of normal ACC system functionality.

On tight turns ACC performance may be limited.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Turn Or Bend Example

When driving on hills, ACC may not detect a vehicle in your lane. Depending on the speed, vehicle load, traffic condi- tions, and the steepness of the hills, ACC performance may be limited.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

ACC Hill Example

ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane in which you are traveling. In the illustration shown, ACC has not yet detected the vehicle changing lanes and it may not detect the vehicle until it's too late for the ACC system to take action. ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the lane-changing vehicle. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes if necessary.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Lane Changing Example

Some narrow vehicles traveling near the outer edges of the lane or edging into the lane are not detected until they have moved fully into the lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead.

jeep avenger cruise control adattivo

Narrow Vehicle Example

ACC does not react to stationary objects and stationary vehi- cles. For example, ACC will not react in situations where the vehicle you are following exits your lane and the vehicle ahead is stopped in your lane. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes if necessary.

The following regulatory statement applies to all Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d`Innovation, Science and Economic Development applicables aux appar- eils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:

La operación de este equipo está sujeta a las siguientes dos condiciones:

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

In addition to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, a Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode is available for cruising at fixed speeds. The Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode is designed to maintain a set cruising speed without requiring the driver to operate the accelerator. Cruise Control can only be operated if the vehicle speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h).

To change between the different control modes, push the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button which turns the ACC and the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control off. Pushing the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control on/off button will result in turning on (changing to) the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode.

Release the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed. Once a speed has been set a message “CRUISE CONTROL SET TO MPH (km/h)” will appear indicating what speed was set. This light will turn on when the system is turned on via the on/off control. It turns green when the cruise control is set.

When the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is set, you can increase speed by pushing the SET (+) button.

The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster display. Refer to “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for more information. The speed incre- ment shown is dependent on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:

When the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is set, you can decrease speed by pushing the SET (-) button.

The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster display. Refer to “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for more information. The speed decre- ment shown is dependent on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:

continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the button

is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display.

The following conditions will cancel the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control without clearing the memory:

To resume a previously set speed, push the RES button and release. Resume can be used at any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).

The system will turn off and erase the set speed in memory if:

Adaptive cruise control?

Temporarily tape a piece of paper the width of your anticipated decal to the windshield and see how it reacts. Are you looking at a solid decal with the logo printed on it or a die-cut decal? If die-cut, you may be able to adjust the letter spacing to allow the sensor to function properly if a decal does/can affect its performance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk  

I think I can make it above the ‘bars’ or sensors. But not sure if that’s all it is? I would think someone had to have covered theirs or put a light bar or something Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Hauk decal is in the black. You can do the same in the black. The sensors for lane departure and adaptive cruise control are in the box behind your mirror and below the black.  

oldhead

If it doesn't block the camera I would think it would be okay. The sensor is up there.  

Deen

Sensors aren't in the mirror itself, they are in the black box up against the windshield. When replacing the windshield they have to calibrate the Sensors so they must be fairly sensative.

    In response to your question, this current ACC system, you have to be moving. If the vehicle is stopped for a few seconds, ACC will cancel, and you will be in control.
