Can the missing sensors be added?

Hello. I'm a new member here and have been enjoying reading all these posts over the last few weeks. I've had my Kona EV for 3 weeks now and loving it so far. These forums have provided a wealth of information, and have been enjoyable too!

I have a question about the front parking sensors, wondering if this is normal or if anyone else has experienced. When I park in my garage, I use the sensor warnings to judge how far forward I can park. This has been working great, until the last few days. Now I regularly, if not always, never get a warning as I get closer to obstacles in front of me. I've tested this elsewhere other than my garage. If I stop, change gear to "R", then the warning beeps start. If I then switch back to "D", the warning beeps continue normally. It's just on the initial approach that I no longer get warning beeps/display. Should I be taking it in? I'm concerned with it being somewhat intermittent, or occurring under those certain conditions, that it won't be reproduced "properly" and hence be dismissed. Any thoughts?

Again, thanks for the excellent reading and knowledge being passed on here.

Thank you for asking this question. You saved me a trip to the dealer and lots of grief over why mu 2021 Kona Ultimate was experiencing a problem. Love the video of the explanation of all the buttons and all of the presenter's videos.

Agreed and definitely more specific than what is available in the manual, I re-visit sometimes rather than try to look it up
BTW welcome to the forum.

Push the parking sensor button in the center console so the blue light is on, see 18:09 of this video

Rear sensors are automatic when in reverse, front sensors turn on with this button on low speed forward.
Note : not really explained well in the manual, just try it and see if that helps.

I also have the Knoa EV Ultimate The cars from the USA don't have them at all . I hope I can get front sensors at the dealership. But for $48000.00 dollars I should have them like other countries
