Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

- Owners report the entire suite of driver-assist alerts—lane departure, blind spot, and adaptive cruise—going dark simultaneously with dashboard warnings lit up.
- Emergency braking activates unexpectedly with no hazard present, causing sudden hard stops.
- Dealers are frequently unable to replicate the fault when the vehicle is brought in for inspection.
- Audio for warning chimes and navigation fades to barely audible after roughly an hour of driving, muting safety alerts.
- One owner's vehicle lost forward collision avoidance and pedestrian braking function shortly before a collision with a school bus.
