Consumer Description

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? experienced phantom braking, especially during dry weather with sun, where there are the mirage of water shimmering across the road. this happen too often when mirage are present. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? It get to the point I would rather disable its safety feature and drive manually. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? None. Note the driver is deaf, so they are also poor in visible warning compared to audio warning.
