Problem: ADAS systems often stop functioning when a vehicle is modified. The consequence of this is that vehicle customization will become unsafe and eventually unallowed. Not just performance mods, but even painting a bumper, wrapping a car, or lifting/lowering causes these systems to malfunction.

SEMA needs to activate its network to engage Automakers, Regulators, SEMA Members and Industry to influence future vehicle design. Vehicles must be designed with modification in mind, and there must be a partnership and transparency with the aftermarket.
