All Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking Complaints
While driving, all ADAS and Emmision System malfunctioned AND went offline (errors appear on main control panel and these features were no longer working). Fortunately, the car was otherwise still drivable without these features. It was brought to a local Acura dealer and they performed a software update which fixed the problem (at least so far after a week of driving).
WHILE USING THE CRUISE CONTROL, VEHICLE WILL AUTOMATICALLY SLAM ON THE BRAKES WITHOUT REASON. THIS TYPICALLY OCCURS ON HIGHWAY WHERE VEHICLE WILL AUTOMATICALLY BRAKE REDUCING SPEED DRAMATICALLY. VEHICLE WILL GO FROM 70MPH TO 55 MPH IN A FEW SECONDS CAUSING THE VEHICLES BEHIND TO HAVE TO BRAKE FAST TO AVOID COLLISION. ACURA HAS WORKED ON VEHICLE 4 TIMES AND CLAIMS THEY CANNOT FIX THE SYSTEM. I WAS TOLD TO HOLD MY FOOT OVER THE ACCELERATOR TO INCREASE SPEED WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT OFFERED NO CORRECTION FOR THIS UNSAFE CONDITION. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 100 TIMES. VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS OLD WITH 7,000 MILES.
