Consumer Description

MOST RECENTLY, DRIVING ALONG ON A SUNNY DAY AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON A FLAT ROAD. NO OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD IN SIGHT. THE COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM BEEPED AND FLASHED THE WARNING ON THE DASH. AT THE SAME TIME THE SYSTEM ENGAGED THE BRAKES MOMENTARILY BEFORE DISENGAGING. THE BRAKING LOWERED MY SPEED TO ABOUT 30-35 MPH. THE ONLY CONCLUSION I COULD REACH WAS THAT THE SYSTEM MISTOOK THE SHADOW OF A TREE FOR AN OBJECT BUT I HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE WHEN TAKING AN EXIT RAMP FROM A HIGHWAY WHEN THE COLLISION WARNING FLASHED AND THE SYSTEM ENGAGED THE BRAKES MOMENTARILY, DROPPING MY SPEED SOMEWHAT, BEFORE DISENGAGING. IN BOTH CASES, I DO NOT KNOW WHY THE SYSTEM DISENGAGED, THOUGH I AM GLAD IT DID AS OTHER VEHICLES APPROACHED FROM BEHIND SOON AFTER.
