Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report
- Forward collision warning light illuminates and stays on after over-the-air software updates, sometimes disabling the warning sound and braking function.
- Automatic emergency braking activates unexpectedly at highway speed while braking to avoid a crash, coinciding with a reported drivetrain failure.
- Adaptive driving assist (ADAS) pulls or drags the vehicle forward instead of allowing normal braking, which owners say contributed to a crash.
- After a recall-related radio software update for the Back Over Prevention campaign, the Forward Collision Avoidance activation button disappears from the infotainment screen and the feature becomes disabled.
- Uconnect updates reset factory settings and switch instrument display language and units, leaving the forward collision warning light stuck on.
