Parking sensors flipping out
My 19 TLX when it is damp or misty and rainy out will at times just start flashing the warning the something is approaching from the front right while I am stopped at a ligh, sometimes when car is passing other times nothing is moving near me. Oddly I was in dealer today getting my fuel pump recall and they gave me a TLX 4 cyl ASPEC loaner and it had same issue. Clearly a software bug. Dealer says they have to expierience the issue. Not worth my time to have them trying to reproduce this. Very annoying at times.

I love spreadsheets.
I've had this issue as well. My front left sensor goes off pretty frequently when I'm at a light. I had my dealer replace that sensor and it helped alot...didn't eliminate the issue completely but it did drastically reduce the number of false alarms. You may ask your dealer if they can change yours out as well. Should be a warranty item.

Dealer told me nothing they will do without reproducing it or me showing a video, I had to remind them that there is a hands free law here in GA. Oddly wife's 19 RDX also does it occasionally, either bad software or crappy sensors they are using.

Yes my 2018 does the same in the rain or wet snow... the first rime it happened I thought it was ice buildup but then it happened on a rainy day. Now I have a sensor warning and need to turn it off until I get it serviced

I have a 2015 TLX and the same thing happens to me, but not necessarily when it's raining from what I recall. It doesn't happen frequently, thankfully. I stopped using ACC shortly after buying the car back in 2014 because it applied the brakes at some of the most frightening times (both during low speed and high speed).

have a 2019, have the same issue when it is raining, gets annoying at times. I asked the dealer to check it out during the recent recall but they said they couldn't find anything wrong, asked if I could get a video of it.
