Clarity front-end question

[amy2421]

Purely hypothetically-speaking, what sort of HondaSense features would you be checking if there was damage done to the front corner of the Clarity? (bumper/upper grille/headlamp area)

None of them. Everything is in the center (except for the obvious "LaneWatch" one on the side mirror), AFAIK.

Radar is behind the big H, light sensor is the bump in the middle of the dashboard, and the front camera is in the block behind the rearview mirror.

So just the big H at the front - would that only affect ACC/LKAS?

The radar behind the H is for ACC. LKAS is the camera behind the mirror. Somebody else will have say whether ACC also uses the camera, but LKAS does not use the radar.

Honda's Collision Mitigation Braking System also uses the radar.

In theory, if any of these systems were compromised, there would be a warning message on the dash?

I know that if the H on the front bumper is covered with road snot (salt/ice/snow), there is a warning that AAC is not available.
