Description of the problem	The vehicle was stopped and i was intending to turn left at a signal light. When the signal changed for me to proceed i accelerated into my left turn when the car suddenly braked on its own and pulled me back into the seat. The audi sense indicator came on being activated as if it sensed i was about to make impact with another vehicle. However, i was the first vehicle turning left and there were no other vehicles in front of me nor any other vehicles opposite of my lane of travel so there were no vehicles anywhere near my vicinity that should have triggered the audi sense. There were no vehicles behind me also turning or i'm sure they would have rear-ended my vehicle given the severe braking action. The system initiated a severe braking action as if i was about to rear-end another vehicle. This occurred on june 14, 2018 at at approximately 10:30 am. Weather conditions were warm, dry and clear with no precipitation. I believe this was caused by a malfunction in the audi sense causing the braking system to initiate.
