What I *suspect* is happening is that when passing assist is activated when you turn on the turn signals, multiple things are happening.
The car is accelerating towards the car in front of it in preparation for passing.
Lane keeping assist appears to be disabled (so the car doesn’t push back against you or alarm when changing lanes). This occurs whenever you turn on the turn signals, it’s not part of passing assist.
But the combination means that when you engage passing assist by turning on the tie signals while you are in pilot assist mode, the car can drift out of its lane. Once it’s over in the next lane and you disengage the turn signal, pilot assist reasserts itself and starts holding lane position.
A true active lane change assist is much more complex. It has to be able to scan the lane next to you, check for an opening, check to make sure there isn’t traffic about to overtake you, and then autonomously initiate the lane change when it has an opening, make the change, then shut off the turn signal on its own once the change is complete.
I do not think Volvo has that capability in the current generation of pilot assist.
