Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

  • Forward collision mitigation and automatic emergency braking fail to warn or brake before a frontal impact, resulting in rear-end or frontal crashes.
  • Backup or rearview camera image freezes, blanks, or fails during reversing, leading to collisions with objects or vehicles behind the car.
  • Adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning intermittently disable themselves while driving on the highway, then reappear later.
  • Parking sensors fail to alert drivers to nearby vehicles or objects, contributing to side-swipe or low-speed collisions.
  • Vehicle fails to shift into Park or engage the emergency brake automatically when the driver door opens, allowing the vehicle to roll forward.
  • A dashboard warning light flashes intermittently and distracts the driver, in one case preceding a collision with the vehicle ahead.
