Component | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | Autopilot/cruise control disengage function should not be on activated by selecting up/reverse on the gear selector. Car inadvertently went into r reverse when disengage was commanded. Narrative: car was on interstate at highway speed with navigate on autopilot and adaptive cruise control on. An accident occurred on the expressway and the state police began to shut down the road. The car successfully and safely automatically stopped behind traffic in front. Police began directing stopped traffic to move off roadway. I selected "up" or disengage on the gear selector and the car instead went into reverse. I stepped on accelerator and car moved backwards without warning. Disengage autopilot/adas needs to be a separate function and different control motion from selecting r reverse like on model 3. Very dangerous. |
