Consumer Description

On three occasions while driving on the expressway the vehicle slammed on the brakes while TACC was enabled. One occasion the vehicle behind me had to swerve onto the shoulder to avoid hitting my vehicle. There was no threat or obstacles in the road, it was totally random. I’m afraid to use TACC and have no option for traditional speed based cruise on my vehicle.
