NHTSA Complaint #11467841 — 2022 TESLA MODEL 3

The car unexpectedly brakes (without driver applying brakes) while in "traffic aware cruise control." This happens 2 to 5 times per 30 miles every time we drive the car on a highway, and has been happening regularly since we bought it about six months ago. Sometimes it's a brief stutter, but many other times it makes a hard brake, short of a full stop, but enough of a sudden deceleration that it poses a safety hazard for vehicles following the car. Sometimes the braking seems to be due to an oncoming large truck in the next lane, but other times it happens when there is no oncoming traffic. The braking is especially bad at night. We live in a rural area with only two-lane highways. The highways are not especially curvy. Sometimes it seems to brake for land formations such as distant mesas. Tesla service checked the vehicle's cameras remotely 2/2/22 but found nothing wrong. They recommended a reboot, which I did, but the problem continues to this day.
