Consumer Description

The car repeatedly rapidly decelerates when passing semi-trucks on the highway. This creates a problem for vehicles driving behind my vehicle as it creates sudden braking for them and it creates a bit of panic for the driver of my vehicle due to the suddenness of the braking. This problem occurs almost every time the vehicle is driving over 60mph on a freeway and is midway in passing a semi-truck trailer truck. The dealer has replaced the camera but the problem still occurs. Collision lights occur at the time of the error but no other warnings occur.
