W212 2015 - Adaptive highbeam assist plus inoperative

Hi,

Have anyone received this message? What was the problem? Reading a bit online, I find out the problem may be in camera? It appeared on my board while driving over a bump (not on speed).

Strange that a week ago, I replaced front discs and breaking pads and handling of the car/wheel seems a bit loose than previously, but it breaks fine. I hardly believe all these events are somehow linked together.

This happened to me one time and went away. Probably has something to do with the multifunctional camera at the top of the windshield. Is it always on? or has the message disappeared?

Yes, the message appears every single time when I start driving.

Hmm. interesting. I believe you can use an OBDII and check for codes to the multifunction camera. I’d start there to see if there’s codes. At worst, you’d need star diagnosis

After a week of driving the car rarely, the message disappeared - very strange, and I have received a new message "SOS inoperative" couple times, but not all the time. I will keep you updated with any news.
