Warning folks who might be tempted to try Blue Cruise 1.0 on the 10 freeway east of the 57 freeway. I did that this past weekend and I'm not doing that until BC1.2 is rolled out. Was going to Joshua Tree for a business matter and decided to take the Mach-E in hopes of using Blue Cruise to be less fatigued when I get there. Boy that was completely not the case.
Two main Issues between Pomona and Joshua along the 10 East:
- Constant disengagement. I think the longest hands free session I got was about 3 minutes prior to passing the Morongo casino. After that, it was much better but it would still randomly cancel itself despite a straight road with light traffic. This was really stressful because just when I start to relax, DING DING DING, need to take control. Repeat every 2-3 minutes. I was way more fatigued when I got to my destination using BC than just taking my Camry. And no, this wasn't "watch the road" disengagements. I kept trying BC hoping it would give me a long stint on the 2+ hour drive. NOPE.
- Due to recent and on-going construction, the lane markers made the Mach-E confused and then just outright give up in a small curve while thinking it's still in the lane it needs to be in! This is outright dangerous as it just went into the "Canceled" state mid turn. Thankfully this was Sunday morning and traffic was quite light.
tl,dr: Don't use BC 1.0 on 10E east of the 57 freeway. It disengages a lot, and gets confused by lane markers.
