ADAS calibration is becoming increasingly complex. In this scenario, which ADAS systems are the most critical to calibrate today?

There are no systems that are more critical to calibrate than others, but it is essential that all calibration criteria are strictly followed according to the manufacturer’s guidelines, because driver assistance systems operate with millimeter-level tolerances, and even minimal errors can cause:

• unexpected braking
• failure to detect obstacles
• lane deviation
• incorrect safety distance calculations

What errors are most frequently encountered in workshops?

The most common errors involve incorrect positioning or fastening of cameras and radars, as well as improper use of calibration targets.

An additional complexity comes from platform sharing between different brands (for example, some Fiat models share platforms with Peugeot and Citroën; Suzuki uses Toyota panels; Mitsubishi adopts Renault solutions; Volvo uses Mercedes panels, etc.).

Without precise knowledge of technical specifications, it becomes easy to use unsuitable tools and compromise calibration.

How much does incorrect calibration affect safety and performance?

Incorrect calibration can have a significant impact on both vehicle safety and performance, especially in modern systems where electronics, sensors, and driver assistance are closely integrated.

It can compromise several systems, including:

• automatic braking (late or unjustified activation)

• lane keeping assist

• adaptive cruise control (incorrect distance calculation)

• less effective ABS and traction control

• misaligned or unstable steering

How do manufacturers differentiate calibration processes?

They differ in methodology, level of automation, and product objectives.
Some rely more on physical testing and robustness, while others focus on data simulations and software updates, especially in next-generation and electric vehicles.

In your experience, what are the main challenges fitters face today?

The main challenges include the increasing complexity of windshields, which requires more specialized skills, as well as the equipment available in workshops, which can affect the effectiveness of interventions.

These factors are compounded by the wide variety of models to manage and the growing complexity of integrated vehicle electronics.

Sekurit Service offers remote calibration. Can you tell us its main advantages?

Of course! The advantages are numerous.

First of all, the ability to operate anywhere, using a smartphone hotspot. This means customers no longer need to book an appointment at an authorized workshop, reducing vehicle downtime.

Additionally, through our service, calibration data can be generated and automatically stored in digital format, making audits and quality checks easier.

What are the most common requests?

Primarily front camera calibration, which represents about 80% of operations.

Front radar calibration accounts for around 10%, while the remaining 10% includes other specialized services.

What distinguishes Sekurit Service from competitors?

Our strength lies in the combination of technical expertise, speed of intervention, and continuous customer support.

My team is highly qualified and provides a complete, professional, and timely service, with significantly reduced waiting times compared to the industry average.

We collaborate daily with mobile workshops and off-site operators, where speed and efficiency are essential to avoid slowing down technicians’ work. For this reason, we ensure fast and precise support throughout all calibration phases.

Even in cases of unsuccessful calibration, we provide immediate technical assistance: although we are not physically present, we analyze each step of the process together with the technician, asking targeted questions to identify any unmet conditions or operational errors.

This approach allows us to reduce downtime and help customers complete the job correctly in the shortest possible time.

Unlike many competitors, we do not simply provide a standard service: we support the customer with real, clear, and effective technical assistance, becoming a true operational partner.

To Sum-Up: 

ADAS calibration is not just a technical step, but a key element for road safety and service quality. In an increasingly complex environment, expertise, proper tools, and specialized support make all the difference.
