As of this note there have been two activations of the Brake Assist Warning, and one of a proximity (blind spot) alert that seem to have been errant in the last two days. I've driven my BS BL with 360+ for 3444 mi with no previous alerts--and haven't changed the settings since I adjusted them the day I brought my BSBL home. (To the point I was wondering if it was active/functioning.) I've booked an appointment with my dealer (Packey Webb Ford, Downers Grove, IL) but given the critical nature of the 360+ system, I thought I'd post here too.

What were the circumstances of each event? My proximity warning will go off prematurely (i think so anyways) when there is a car turning right onto another road in front of me. I give them space but the thing will sometimes still flash red and give an audible tone. Even my wife who is a sensible Susan when she drives has had it activate. The Bronco seems to be better but sometimes driving close to a wall or barrier on a road will trip the blind spot system. My old Escape what terrible with this. Good luck at the dealer, I wouldn't expect them to find anything.

Did that suddenly occur, or did that happen from "day 1"?
