Calibration Research Tips: Subaru EyeSight - UPDATE
I-CAR · August 18, 2021 · Subaru
Summary
This article outlines the calibration requirements for Subaru's EyeSight stereo camera system, highlighting specific events that trigger mandatory calibration. It emphasizes that even minor collisions can displace the camera axis, requiring adjustment even if no warning lights or temporary stop messages are displayed.
What to do on the job
Perform an EyeSight stereo camera calibration after any camera removal/replacement, suspension component replacement, wheel alignment, windshield replacement, or minor collision, even if no warning lights are illuminated.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the necessity of EyeSight calibration on estimates and supplements. It is particularly useful for defending calibration charges after minor collisions where no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) or warning lights are present, as Subaru explicitly states the camera axis can still be displaced.
