Consumer Description

I was pulling out from a stop sign to cross a four lane intersection. I attempted to pass between two cars, but the emergency brake system activated, presumably because the first car was still in front of me, even though it would have well passed by the time I got there. Because of the emergency braking, I was left stuck across two lanes of traffic with cars coming toward me and no way to get out of the way. This has happened twice in 800 miles on the car. I live on a very busy intersection and it took me a couple of months to get comfortable driving in this congestion. I think the car simply isn't designed for that level of traffic, but the way that it's reacting is terrifying. Consumer stated issue continues to occur even when the pre-collision system is disabled.
