NHTSA Complaint #11057684 — 2015 BMW 328XI

I WAS DRIVING ON I-95 AT PACE WITH TRAFFIC, NO SPEEDING AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME ABRUPTLY HIT THE BREAKS. I WAS 3 TO 4 CAR LENGTHS AWAY. I HIT THE BRAKES BUT WAS NOT CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAD PLENTY OF DISTANCE AND THE CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH ABS BRAKES. AS I HIT THE BRAKES, IT SEEMED LIKE THE CAR WAS NOT SLOWING DOWN EVEN AS I PRESSED HARDER AND THE ABS BRAKES NEVER KICKED IN. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND WAS UNABLE TO SWERVE WITHOUT CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT. MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO HIT THE CAR DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME. THE CAR I HIT SUSTAINED A SCRAPED REAR BUMPER NO OTHER DAMAGE.
