Like every machine, only in certain conditions, which I assume the maker tries to hide as much as possible.
Like snow or ice buildup causing issues with the camera, radar, etc.
I'm also thinking like...snow-blowers are kinda dangerous. How does it know it's not about to chew through your limb or pet? Does it just charge through whatever? If it doesn't do that, then does it get stuck randomly thinking it's trying to keep you safe but actually there's just snow in its way.
Or it not being able to find its way back to the charging station
