Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report
- Electronic parking brake engages on its own while driving or after stopping and fails to disengage, sometimes stranding the vehicle.
- Automatic emergency braking system activates unexpectedly at low-to-moderate speeds (around 27-40 mph) and brings the car to a stop without driver input.
- Rearview camera becomes inoperable, sometimes at the same time the parking brake fails to release.
- Adaptive cruise control causes the vehicle to slow or stop unexpectedly when another car is in an adjacent turn lane, requiring the driver to override with the gas pedal.
- Owners report the vehicle failing to shift into gear or getting stuck in neutral at the same time dashboard warning lights (parking brake, check engine, traction control) illuminate.
