Complaint Summary
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Owner Narrative
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING IS AN ABSOLUTE DANGER TO THE MOTORING PUBLIC AND NEEDS TO BE ELIMINATED IMMEDIATELY. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF ENGINEER'S WHO DON'T KNOW THEIR ASS FROM A HOLE IN THE GROUND DESIGNING BULLSHIT THAT DOESN'T WORK. FAR TOO MANY FALSE RADAR RETURNS AND UNWANTED HARD STOPS TO BE OF ANY USE. I DO NOT OWN THIS VEHICLE BUT IF I DID THE FIRST THING I WOULD DO RIGHT AFTER I PULL THE FUSE FOR THE LANE DEPARTURE WARNING WOULD BE TO ISOLATE AND BYPASS AEB. THIS WILL BE DONE ON ANY VEHICLES I PURCHASE IN THE FUTURE AND I DO NOT CARE WHAT THE LAW STATES ABOUT DOING SO
