Consumer Description

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY ON 2/15 AT 65MPH WITH THE INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY AND ABRUPTLY APPLIED THE BRAKES VERY HARD. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF US TO WARRANT ENGAGEMENT OF THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. AN ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD. IT WAS EXTREMELY UNSETTLING TO THE POINT THAT MY WIFE NO LONGER WANTS TO TRAVEL IN THE VEHICLE, NOR WILL WE HAVE OUR INFANT SON TRAVEL IN IT. THE VEHICLE HAD PREVIOUSLY ABRUPTLY BRAKED IN LOW SPEED CONDITIONS (IE, PARKING LOTS) FOR NO APPARENT REASON. DEALER HAD PREVIOUSLY REPLACED RADAR SYSTEM COMPONENTS PRIOR TO THE 2/15 INCIDENT. I WILL NO LONGER USE THE DRIVER AIDS AS A RESULT AS THEY ARE CLEARLY NOT SAFE.
