I have a 2014 E350 coupe.
Please see pic. I can’t find this symbol anywhere. What does this mean? Is it supposed to be on? How do I get it off?

Rear bumper recently repainted. Not sure if this caused it.
I don’t remember symbol being on before... but I’m not really sure. Only had the car 3 months.

((( I recently had a diagnostic done and front radar repositioned. Everything checked out and car is running great))). Tech said he never has seen that symbol pictured below.

Help,please if you know.

Thanks.

Looks like a collision prevention warning.

Thanks. I need to try the steps again. My cruise control lever is a little diff (no push button on the end) . I was starting to think I didn’t have distronic Plus.

what he said
it detects if a car is about to hit you from the rear applies the break to prevent you from hitting the car in the front

I'm thinking of the forward radar aspect of CPA, his E coupe has a single radar in the bumper on the right side, unless he has distronic plus, which then it has 2. If the sensors were not installed right or not cailbrated, there could be a fault and that symbol may be the result.

Thank you so much. I’ll get into this his weekend when I have time. Hoping I can figure it out without a trip to service. This is so helpful.
