In order to address the running boards you must go into the settings and adjust the running boards from off to automatic. 2. During use of the active assist, the vehicle on several occasions has just suddenlt decelerated to 45mph regardless of the speed that was set. This has occured with no vehicles infront or to the sides on straight roads.”
