All Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking Complaints
1) Forward collision detection doesn't work. Very rarely screen shows a pop up, but never applies automatic brakes. Especially when we were in traffic and if vehicle infrant suddenly stops. ..then it doesn't detect the forward stopped objects and fail to apply breaks 2) we need to push break paddle hard to stop the vehicle completely when car is below 10Mil/hrs speed . It feels like at lower speeds break paddle doesn't work. 3) The lane keeping assistant never worked. 4) Sometimes a car drags to one side of the traffic even when it is going at a speed of 25Mph.
As per the technical specifications, The VF8 car must adhere collision safety features. But actually when we drive the car on freeways, State highways, and internal roads, these safely features never worked for me. Kindly refer the attached technical feature documents so called supported features by the manufacturer.
Major Issues: Vehicle unresponsiveness: Twice in 4 days, the car was unresponsive, requiring a family member to stay in rain and cold weather (very dangerous) and wait for the car to restart(extremely dangerous). Unintended rolling: Once, the car started rolling back when parked on a slight incline, requiring me to activate creep mode. Additionally, while parked in reverse, the car inexplicably moved forward even with the gear in reverse (extremely dangerous). Speaker malfunctions: The speakers were unresponsive the first two days. On the second occasion, restarting the car resolved the issue but resulted in loud noise from the front speakers. Climate control malfunction: Despite turning off the AC and fan, cold air continues to come inside from the vents regardless of settings. This is uncomfortable and unusable during winter. Heads-up display not working(extremely dangerous). Battery warning: Technician mentioned battery is weak on new cars as per my knowledge batteries typically...
When in heavy fog, rain, direct light to cameras or sensor the safety features become unavailable. As soon as any of the above goes away they come back. This in my opinion becomes more of a risk driving these vehicles if the safety systems do not function properly.
