![]() The lane-keeping feature, adaptive cruise control, front braking, and other Eyesight features are all working perfectly. I see no evidence of any type of induced glare or other aberrations, and Eyesight is working perfectly in every respect after nearly 10,000 miles of using it. ![]() My windshield remains cleaner and clearer using Rain-X windshield washer fluid than with other fluids, which is why I prefer it. I would think that keeping the windshield clear from such debris would be the most important factor in maintaining Eyesight functionality. Then I often have to stop and clean it by hand. Most other washer fluids I've tried just smear everything across the windshield and make things worse. Without an effective windshield washer fluid, my windshield quickly becomes cloudy with dirt, haze, and insect splatters. If the technology is so sensitive that a virtually invisible coating can easily defeat it, then it's unreliable and needs to go back to the drawing board. Just don't bitch when your Ascent does not stop in time if someone cuts you off. ![]() So if you want to use products like Rain-X or coat the windshield or tint, etc.be my guest. Took almost 9 months of rain and car washes to get that coating to wear away enough for the Ascent to behave like the uncoated Impreza. It was until I realized that the dealer coated my windshield when the PermaPlate was done. No warning at all!! Sure EyeSight worked when getting a missile lock for cruise, but it was way off for safety distance/closing speed. The Ascent would never trigger and I would be dangerously close to the ahead vehicle and be forced to brake myself. I could not get the Ascent to behave like the Impreza with regards to collision warning and auto braking when I first got it. Case in point are my vehicles: 2017 Impreza with EyeSight and the 2019 Ascent. Knowing how Eyesight is supposed to behave and not getting that same behavior in a vehicle with "coating" on the windshield should be a cause for concern. I think people expect a warning light when one says "does not affect the Eyesight".
