Favor: video of lane keeping assist working

Could someone take a video of a pre 2018 S class showing lane keeping assist vibrating the wheel? I know, I know, but I'm hoping the vibration is loud enough to see and hear in the video.

With Covid, the dealer is not allowing owners to accompany service staff on road tests, and my LKA is no longer vibrating the steering wheel. Service is saying it is operating as designed.

It used to be very noticeable and now nothing. I suspect the vibration motor has died.

Thank you in advance!

You won't hear it. It's just a quick vibration of the wheel and in the middle of the gauge display a steering wheel with hands over it appears.

It is more like 2-3 pulses of vibration. Depending on the situation, if there is no noise around you at all, you might hear it, yes. Otherwise, you certainly feel it 100% when your hands are on the wheel.

Exactly this - 3 strong vibrations in the wheel
