Probably not to the same level of lane-correct-agressiveness, but my SIL's Volkswagen's lane correct is insane. The roads around here aren't great, and it will often detect random streaks or lines of potholes as a lane and refuse to allow you to avoid them. Once an elk ran in front of the car and when my brother tried to swerve to avoid the damn car fought him so hard we only narrowly missed it. And at other times when on roads with no lane markings at all it randomly decides that the road isn't the road, and that ditch over there is the lane we're supposed to be in.
All that said, it works great most of the time, and we just turn it off if it's acting hinkey
I almost hit pedestrians (twice!) because our Hyundai Kona re-enables the lane correction thing at each boot (I don't know how to say "boot" but for cars, in english. But you get the gist). And I forget it's there, and it's literally life-threatening.
(there are no curbs here, pedestrians have to walk on the roads)
the problem with "most of the time" is that it only takes one car accident to be the last car ride you ever take
