Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

The automatic emergency braking system engages suddenly with no obstacle present, sometimes on open highways at 60-65 MPH.
Some owners report the collision mitigation braking system brings the car to a full stop from high speed without warning, even with no cars or objects nearby.
Sudden false braking events have caused loss of control in low-speed situations, such as parking lots, leading to collisions.
Lane-keeping assist has auto-corrected steering in response to shadows or pavement seams rather than actual lane markings.
A 'Brake' warning light sometimes illuminates during or after these unexpected braking or deceleration events.
In at least one case the backup camera stopped working at the same time other warning lights and system faults appeared.
