Default Renault triggers parking sensors (European specific)

I read in a different thread that certain Ford models, in the US, would trigger the parking warning system while driving and/or when stopping for a red light.

Now, I notised the exact same happens here in Europe, especially with newer Renaults. I just need to be a few meters behind a Renault, in slow moving traffic or when stopping at a traffic light, and my parking sensors go beserk. Doesn’t bother me the sligthest tbh... Easy to disengage...

Anyone having the same issue with Renaults or other makes?

Yep, my Cayenne reacts to alot of Ford F150's and the newer explorers...99% of the time its when I"m stopped at a light.

Has happened to me, several times at stop lights, I've ignored it and haven't paid attention to the adjacent vehicles.

Now that this is on my mind I will note what vehicles are around me the next time that this occurs.

It happen to me frequently, I am also in Europe, but I didn't know that other cars trigger it, like the Renault. First time it was just after PPF was wrapped on the front of the car, so I was thinking that is the reason.
