Active brake assist warning message

It has been about a month since I bought the car and it has less than 1500 miles on it. When I start the car it displays this message in yellow "Active brake assist functions limited. Please see the manual". Called the dealer for advise and was transferred to various service "Advisers" but nobody had a clue. They finally said to bring the car in and that it would probably take a couple of hours to diagnose and then they will let me know how long they would need to fix whatever it is that they need to fix. Took the car in waited a couple hours and the service guy came back and said I would need to leave the car overnight. They still couldn't diagnose the problem after 2 days. I am fine with waiting as long as they need to fix it. What irks me is that they couldn't diagnose the problem after spending so much time on it. I am thinking about trying another dealer. Anyone has/had the same problem?

Had the same thing. They need to update some software for you.

Do you get the audible warning when approaching a stationary object in the path of the car too fast? I noticed that after I started getting that message, the car stopped giving the audible warning.
