Is there anyway that I can increase the volume of the alert? I have normal music volume turns on and I can't barely hear it. My passengers feel the same way too. It would defeat the purpose if not hearing it. I drove other cars before and the PCW alert is high enough to hear, and it had saved my @ss rear-ending someone twice.

 

You can only adjust the sensitivity to long, normal, or short. I agree that it should be louder.

MB's system is loud and it even lowers the radio.

 

I doesn't even make a sound on mine, it just shows "BRAKE" and some orange lights flashing.

 

We need to complain to Acura relations on this. What's the point of having this feature? This is one of the reasons why I picked this car.

 

Stop texting while driving and pay attention to the road problem solved!

This is not a TCWS
"Texting Collision Warning System"

 

I don't text and drive. I just want to have it incase I'm distracted by something. Don't tell me you never got distracted while driving.

 

You meant the orange "BRAKE" alert?

 

I don't think you should worry about how loud the beep sound is, it also depends on how close you are to the object in front to either flash, flash and beep, or full on all above plus brake pressure and seatbelt pressure.
Also the system works very well so it will do its job.
