Consumer Description

There have been a few instances in which the emergency breaking system activated based on false positives. Examples include certain overhead highway signs (one in particular is a regular trigger in a certain lane of a certain road in my area) as well as dips in the road or construction areas or the bottom of hills, in which the sensor presumably reads the upcoming hill as an actual instruction. In one of these instances a car behind me locked up the brakes to avoid hitting me as my car applied the brakes unnecessarily. These issues have occurred repeatedly and are often able to be reproduced.
