Abstract

A method adapts vehicle functionality that is automatically carried out by an assistance system. In a method in which misunderstandings between driver and vehicle are prevented in predetermined driving situations, when the driver aborts the automatically carried out functionality, this abortion is recorded and saved. If the abortion frequency exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the aborted functionality is replaced by a modified or new functionality.
