Surround View Monitor (SVM)

[tocohillsguy]

I've noticed that the SVM will occasionally turn on when I'm stopped in traffic or at a light, but not always. What is triggering the SVM? I've noticed stopping under an underpass seems to trigger it, but I'm not positive if it is a consistent outcome.

I've noticed that exhaust from a neighboring vehicle will also make it go off from time-to-time. It's not uncommon as I've had this happed on several of my other vehicles that are not Genesis, but the GV80 does seem extra sensitive.

Mine will go off when I am stopped nest to a ford pickup truck.

Not only Ford. Many cars will kick it off. I think they put the level too sensitive. My old ride, an infiniti, never did this.

My Audi did it as well, but not as much.
90% of the time mine goes off, I am at a light and there is a ford PU truck in front of me.

In a year of ownership, I think this has happened a handful of times with my GV60P, usually when I am stopped at a corner (stop sign or red light).

I think that the comparison to how other brands used to perform on this is invalid. It would be different if you said that the Infiniti that you still have doesn't do this. I suspect that when you were driving that car, there were not nearly so many cars out there with their rear parking sensors powered while going forward. It seems that only in the last three (maybe four) years have many cars been produced with always powered ultrasonic sensors.

Common issue. Just push the botton on your console to turn it off temporarily.

And it will turn back on momentarily

Keep pushing. Life’s not perfect. Did you ever ask your significant other to stifle themselves?
