To put the topic to bed, I looked at the Policy wording of four Car Insurance Companies. ADAS only featured in one, Company X. That said, Company X defined the obligations that it had to the Insured that it would pay for (repair, test, re-calibration etc) if the car had been in any accident that would have affected the ADAS system including Windscreen mounted ADAS components. Regards retiredbri

The words were just as in the policy so are open to interpretation. Like most "legal speak", baffling to us mortals! Regards retiredbri

Thanks xman. I did some searching an the following URL was found: https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/car-industry-news/2020/07/31/insurance-industry-requirements-established-for-adas-equipped-vehicles I think there is a minefield out there. I'm looking at more companies so If I find similar "ADAS" words, 'll let you know. Regards retiredbri

I am looking at using a different company for this year's Car insurance and looking at the "Fine Print" (I really need to get a life) I came across the following clause: "Advanced Driver Assistance systems (ADAS) When using a car fitted with ADAS, you must follow the manufacturer’s instructions and load any software and/or safety related updates. If you don’t, your insurance won’t be valid" Would this mean that a "re-calibration" of the ADAS is essential after any malfunction? Regards retiredbri

And because I've moved house, could I have missed it? Words of wisdom welcome regards retiredbri
