2019 Anthem Blind Spot Indicators

I have a 2019 Anthem. Since delivery, the blind spot warning system has been hyper sensitive. It is now constantly active regardless of the surroundings and I have removed the fuse to avoid continuous alarms.

Both Entegra CS and the system manufacturer have assured me that there is no turning adjustment that can be made. Has anyone else had this experience?

could be water in the sensors - our 2018 has to have them replaced at some point

It's a known, common issue. The sensor gets wet and shorts out causing both indicators to blink simultaneously. It's covered under warranty

Yes, ours is currently in the shop for this reason. The tech noticed that the triangular icons in the side mirrors were flashing a fault. Fault does not show up anywhere else except on the side mirrors.
Tech said it has nothing to do with the latest recall to reseal the sensors.
We'll see in a few days.

The system is just not very helpful. I have learned to ignore mine.... as my bottom wide angle convex mirror is much more reliable in telling me information that is accurate and useful....

The information you get from the blind spot monitor, even when working, is minimally useful.

Depend on your mirrors

Its probably water in the sensors. We've had two failures in 2 years, and both times it was water in a sensor. There's a recall to reseal the sensors so hopefully that will keep them working

If I remember there was a recall notice on the the senors about collecting water . There might be others that would know for sure or contact Entegra.
