Consumer Description
The traffic-aware cruise control triggers constant forward collision warnings on my commute, and the system highlights as threats vehicles that are parked on the side of the road safely out of the path of traffic. The warning activates automatic emergency braking, which results in a collision hazard to vehicles behind me due to unexpected and unpredictable heavy braking. I stopped using the feature after the fifth such incident within the same approximate 7 mile trip. I have read about this safety issue previously and am aware that it is under investigation by the NHTSA, but did not realize it was this bad.
