Consumer Description

While driving my vehicle in snowy conditions, my vehicle slammed on the brakes and sensed a collision. The sensors were covered with snow, and typically, the sensors will turn off when they are obstructed. At the time I was going 30-35 MPH in 1-2 inches of snow and my vehicle detected a possible collision and auto-braked, bringing me to an immediate stop. Should there have been a vehicle immediately behind me, I would have been rear-ended and the vehicle behind me would not have had time to react due to the snow conditions. I cannot stress how dangerous this is while driving in adverse conditions with other vehicles around you to have your vehicle come to an immediate stop. This continued to happen 4 more times at while driving at lower speeds, during turns, driving in parking lots. Each time the system will state something related to forward collision avoidance and the giant "BRAKE" sign will flash in my dashboard. I no longer felt safe driving my vehicle in the snow due to this auto-braking system.
