  • Date complaint filed: Apr-17, 2024
  • Failed components: FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, and FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

While driving on a large 4 lane highway, using the adaptive cruise control, the car automatically applied the brakes with no visible obstruction. From what i remember, no collision alarm or warning was given. Car rapidly decelerated, until i overrode by applying the gas. This happened three times, on the same road. Twice on one trip, and a third time a week later. All false activations occurred while road was at slight curve.
