Consumer Description

Several times (at least 4 times) on various trips, I was driving on the interstate going at least 70 mph and I had cruise control on. I DO NOT have autopilot. If the highway was blacktop and I approached a white concrete bridge deck, the car suddenly brakes. Also, twice I was next to a tractor trailer (I was in the left lane and the tractor trailer was in the middle lane to my right) and the car braked suddenly. I thought the car “anticipated” that the trailer was coming into my lane. Regarding the white concrete bridge deck, I wonder if the car “saw” a wall ahead and that is why it braked.
