Lane Keeping Assist System
2016 MDX SH-AWD Advance/Ent
Like many features on this car, LKAS only seems to work when it wants to. Most of the time it doesn't work. Is there anything I can do to make it more useful?

I have the same problem as you.
Even when the lanes are solid in the dashboard, the LKAS functions 20% of the time at best.

I don't know, you could just pay attention the to the task of driving and maintain your lane like we've done for 120+ years. I find some of the nannies obnoxious and intrusive but I know my limitations as a driver so when things really go off the rails I'm willing to submit to a few of them, LKAS is a step back in terms of driver attentiveness.

It bothers me that a feature that is supposed to work on a $50K car doesnt work. No different than the poor FM reception I get 20-30 miles outside NYC when in other much cheaper cars like my daughters Elantra the stations sound perfectly OK. I am not a believer in satellite radio so I stream Pandora most of the time.
The backup camera at night is useless and the auto sensing wipers have a mind of their own.
Fortunately the car has many other things done right.

On my 2017 Hybrid it works extremely well! It is smoother and more accurate then the one on my Audi. As long as the lines on the dash indicate solid it steers around corners, etc very well. After a short time it reminds you to grab hold of the wheel and drive! I would have the dealer look at it.

It works perfectly on my 2017 SH-AWD Tech. Steers around curves with no issues, keeping in the middle of the lane. It only works at speeds above 45 MPH. And about every 15 seconds a message pops up that says "Steering Required". But, the slightest input to the steering wheel and it resumes steering.
