Joe Keene, automotive content video producer at Babcox Media, discusses a number of helpful ADAS calibration reminders that present themselves when addressing a Hyundai Santa Cruz that needed windshield replacement in the front and also had its rear bumper removed for repair. They include making sure your software is the current version; being sure of a mobile Wi-Fi hot spot for the test drive; verifying use of OEM glass; removing ADAS components alone requires calibration; and the importance of first performing an alignment.
