Today’s vehicles, even base models, are equipped with increasingly sophisticated technology. This includes Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which use information from various sensors to “see” the world outside the vehicle. These sensors can be damaged in collisions, fail in normal operation or require recalibration to work effectively.
AAA conducted a study of three vehicles to better understand the costs of replacing and/or calibrating ADAS sensors in tupical collision and repair scenarios.
