2021 TOYOTA TACOMA Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking Problems

FRONT RADAR RECALL- NO BACK COVER AND GOES DEFECTIVE

Auto Emergency Braking has gotten extremely dangerous and locking breaks when nothing is in front of me. Always while in cruise control mode. On long extended highways, the truck will randomly slam on the brakes and skid the back tires. It has happened 6 times now. This most recent one made us slide into the next lane and I had to turn the truck into a field (~20mph) after the truck brakes went off. To avoid on coming traffic. There was a car turning around half a mile ahead and was nowhere close. Additionally, a severe issue of premature rust and degradation is occurring on the truck. 13,000 miles and the bottom looks like it's been on the road for several years.

Another vehicle turned left in front of the Toyota, resulting in a head-on collision at about 30 mph. The forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking systems did not engage and the airbags did not deploy. Police report has not been completed by GRPD as of today (6/1/2022).

UPON ACCELERATION VEHICLE WILL HAVE DELAYED ENGAGEMENT, UP TO AND INCLUDING A NEAR STALL OR STUTTERING. HAS LED TO SEVERAL NEAR MISSES (X2). THE TSS SYSTEM TAKES OVER AND DOES IT'S THING VERSUS ALLOWING THE DRIVER TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR THE CONDITIONS. EXAMPLE WOULD BE AUTOMATIC APPLICATION OF BRAKES DUE TO DEER IN ROAD CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL ON AN ICY ROAD WAY. DRIVER RELEASED GAS PEDAL AND WAS COASTING AS DEER WAS CROSSING. DUE TO BRAKES BEING AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED, VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLIDE, DEER BECAME SPOOKED AND STOPPED CROSSING, VEHICLE ENDED UP PARTIALLY IN THE DITCH. AFTER MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES (5+ MEMORABLE), DRIVER HAS LOST ALL FAITH IN THE SAFETY AND RELIABILITY OF THIS VEHICLE AND DOES NOT TRANSPORT PASSENGERS AS THEY FEAR FOR THE PASSENGER'S SAFETY. DRIVER ONLY UTILIZES VEHICLE BECAUSE IT IS THEIR LAST AND ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORT.
