Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report
- Driver attention/attention-alert camera falsely flags attentive drivers as distracted, especially when wearing sunglasses, triggering repeated audible warnings.
- Forward Attention Warning and lane-following camera systems cannot be fully disabled in settings despite selecting the off option, leading to constant beeping.
- Adaptive cruise control disengages and abruptly slows the vehicle when the in-cabin camera misreads the driver's eyes, particularly with certain eyewear.
- In at least one case the system escalated attention warnings to a message that the vehicle was about to be disabled while driving on the interstate.
- One owner reported the vehicle shifted from park to drive on its own on two occasions, nearly striking a bystander, and this was logged as a crash.
