Consumer Description

When using cruise control my Model Y will randomly slam on the brakes for no reason. Latest incident was on a two lane highway (HWY 395 in CA) at 1pm. Sunny with perfect visibility. Road condition was no problem. No visual obstacles anywhere that would confuse the cameras. Zero reason for the brakes to be slammed. Luckily there were no cars around me. Especially behind me. This is a common occurrence and very dangerous. This could easily cause someone to rear end me as this happens in spots this shouldn’t and when you least expect it. This has been an issue people have been complaining about for awhile now with no fix. Please help
