Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Automatic emergency braking or forward collision system triggers hard, unnecessary braking on clear roads with no obstacle present, sometimes while adaptive cruise control is engaged.
  • Forward collision warning light comes on and disables cruise control, with dealers unable to reset the sensor in some cases.
  • Adaptive cruise control fails to slow the truck for stopped or slow traffic ahead, leading to a crash into the vehicle in front.
  • Backup camera image points at the ground instead of showing the rear view, so the driver cannot see obstacles like a lowered tailgate.
  • Forward collision avoidance and automatic braking fail to engage when needed, allowing the truck to strike another vehicle despite the brake pedal being pressed.
