Complaint Summary
FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Owner Narrative
I was driving up a hill and coming to a light. Another car was asking the turn at the light. I let off the gas to slow the car down and there was no way I was going to hit the car turning. The Automatic Emergency Braking engaged, slamming on the brakes, causing an abrupt stop in traffic. I was almost hit from behind because this system took over my car and did not allow me the driver to co trol the car.
