Description of the problem | Issue 1: adaptive cruise control many times unintentionally accelerates even if it is very clear the front vehicle is slowing down calmly or even stopping; until it is too close the car itself activates emergency auto braking but for a second acceleration being still on before it deactivates (usually acc does this calmly and safely). In some cases i had to do emergency braking since it misses the detection of car infront of you; it will be also very hard to do at a time if car just starts to do very high acceleration. Second issue is that a stationary vehicle is detected or not detected with 50/50 success. Third issue is autobraking , as seen in issue 1, even in normal driving there is no guarantee it will brake; i had several incidents to have emergency brake myself. Fourth issue: when car stops at a certain angle downhill wheels partially turned right. Then immediately if tries to join a main road to the right, but slightly uphill, the car stalls for a 3-5 sec, before it accelerates. This makes it unsafe if there is heavy traffic and joining the road. The dates are multiple so i will put the last incident date here. *tt |
