Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

- Opening and closing the tailgate repeatedly flexes and eventually cuts the camera wiring, causing intermittent or total loss of the backup image.
- Forward Collision Avoidance and Automatic Emergency Braking activate on their own while driving, applying the brakes without an apparent obstacle.
- Some owners with the recall on file report the dealer had no parts available or told them their VIN was not included in the campaign.
- Backup camera loss is described as a safety risk when reversing near pedestrians, children, or in parking lots.
