Sorry, I can't comment on the 1.5 'cause I have the 2.0 BL. BUT, I have an experience from my 3K mile round trip to New Mexico. My Grand-Daughter wanted to test the lane minding, so took both hands off the wheel. First came the message "put your hands on the wheel!" She ignored it. Then started a loud alarm! She ignored it! THEN, the Sport turned off the Cruise control and hit the brakes! THAT got her attention!
Oh wow I didnā€™t realize itā€™d go that far if you ignored it! I tried it one day on an empty 2 lane in the explorer & yes the vehicle will steer itself. Though about the time I get the warning message thatā€™s about when I chicken out. I didnā€™t realize itā€™d go further to make you retake the wheel! šŸ˜®

drove across western canada last summer. loved the sport, can't really complain about anything tbh. this summer we are heading to Tuktoyaktuk, that should be a solid test haha.
Reviving this thread because hopefully you can give us some reviews of the trip to Tuktoyaktuk!

I haven't really taken mine on any long trips but I have racked up 60,000 miles in two short years driving it to work and back daily.
