Volvo XC90: Driver support / Steering assistance during collision risks limitations
The function may have limited functionality in certain situations and not
intervene, e.g.:
- for smaller vehicles such as motorcycles
- if more than half of your vehicle has moved into the adjacent lane
- on roads/lanes with indistinct or no side lane markings
- outside the speed range 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph)
- when speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced
power – e.g. during cooling due to overheating.
Functionality may also be reduced in other situations, such as:
- road work

- narrow roads
- poor road surfaces

general limitations.
