Description of the problem	We were in a thanksgiving day related touch n go traffic on a normal street, which enters into a mall. All of us are stopped at a red light, car ahead of us just started moving and we followed after allowing a safe distance, then suddenly the car ahead of us stopped, so i tried stopping quickly, but the car's automatic collision avoidance kicked in and took control of my brakes, but it still didnt stop, i was trying to stop, but the brakes were not working. Ended up rear-ending car infront of me. The whole point of this safety feature was to prevent the car from rear ending other cars in day-to-day traffic situations. Also our speed was not more than 20 mph, when i hit the gas pedal, almost instantly i realized i have to stop and took my foot off the pedal, tried braking, but car kept rolling forward. This is just 4 month old car with 2500 miles on it. Waiting to see how toyota handles my case, in the meantime, insurance thinks i am at fault and started the claim, covering the car infront of me. My dashboard displayed a "brake" message in red color, which is true, it identified a collision, but didnt stop. Imo stopping is more important! There was some damage to car infront of me, my car had some minor damage to grills and front bumper area.
