Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Dash lights up with ESC, ABS, Traction Control, and Brake warnings together, often followed by a diagnosis of a bad master brake cylinder or Electronic Brake Control Module.
  • Forward Collision and Brake Assist warning messages appear alongside Electronic Stability Control alerts, sometimes limiting vehicle speed or disabling cruise control.
  • Some drivers report the automatic braking feature activates on its own with no other vehicles nearby, slowing the car suddenly before resuming normal speed.
  • In one case, brakes reportedly went to the floor on the highway with little stopping power, requiring extreme force to bring the vehicle to a stop.
  • Owners report dealerships being unable to complete repairs due to nationwide backorders on brake system and module parts, leaving vehicles undrivable for weeks.
