Caution "Pothole"

As I was driving today, I started getting alerts about potholes and bumps. I hadn't heard these before (Ive only had my car for about a month and haven't driven it much yet).....I looked up and found this article from a few years ago....

https://www.motorauthority.com/news/...warning-system

Just as an FYI in case anyone else was wondering where these messages come from...

I too have noticed the pothole warning in the CLE53. My previous E53 Coupe would receive the “traffic event ahead” warnings but nothing more specific. I wonder if our 2024/25 CLE’s can report this type of detail or only receive the warnings. The Motor Authority article was in 2021. I bet by now, the 2024/25 CLE’s also report the more detailed road warnings.

I’ve only ever gotten those alerts via Android Auto/Waze.

I've received a warning or two in the past.
Technology or not, I'm always negotiating with the roads here in Ca.
20" rims, low profile tires and potholes, what could go wrong?
Will have my wheel alignment checked when I go for my tire rotation.
HNY everyone.

I get the same "warning"...too bad there aren't any potholes when the alert is announced. But there are plenty of them elsewhere on the roads in NY. I try to remember where they are on the roads that haven't been recently been paved and drive around them. The CLE53 handles Great!
