Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Automatic emergency braking activates with no vehicle or obstacle present, causing sudden hard stops on highways, sometimes called phantom braking.
  • Adaptive cruise control abruptly decelerates the car by roughly 15 to 20 mph on clear roads with no traffic ahead, then resumes speed on its own.
  • Forward Collision Avoidance system reportedly goes inoperable and the car inadvertently accelerates when close to another vehicle, requiring forceful braking to stop.
  • Automatic braking fails to engage in an actual low-speed collision, with owners reporting the system did not deploy to prevent a fender-bender.
  • ADAS features intermittently disable themselves mid-drive, including cruise control and traction control, with one owner noting a loss of control on a snowy road.
  • Forward-facing detection reportedly fails to recognize vehicles towing trailers, raising concern that automatic emergency braking would not trigger in that situation.
