I've gotten beeps and something flashed on the instrument panel, but when I focused my eyes on the instrument panel, it was gone.

Freakin' useless.

A better user interface would be to have the whole panel turn red when you're about to hit something.

I with my car had an accessible log of these notices. Another example, my car gives you a safety score at the end of every drive, out of 100. When I get less than 100, there's no information about what I might do to improve my score, and ostensibly, drive more safely.

Classic!

One of the downsides of being a lifelong engineer is I see the obvious flaws in everyday designs, and it's so frustrating not being able to fix them.

That’s what the beeps are for!

Freakin useless is hiding OBD codes.
