Not sure why the hell Peterbilt put their ACC radar on the outside of the bumper, but this causes me quite a few problems. As it stands now I've driven through snow a few times this winter. The ACC radar keeps getting covered up and thus causing follow distance warnings as well as hitting of the brakes automatically without my input. Is there a workaround or a way to prevent this?

You guys always help me out when I have a question or concern about my 2020 Peterbilt 579 truck. I appreciate your help.
