Description of the problem | Took delivery of vehicle on friday, january 29th, 2021. While driving home from plymouth, ma to concord, nh, i was using the adaptive cruise control. I was traveling between 65mph and 70mph. Roads were completely dry, there were no other cars near me, and there were no obstacles in front of me. I was traveling in the middle lane of a three lane highway. Out of nowhere, the brakes were forcefully applied by the computer which nearly brought the vehicle to a stop in the middle of the interstate. After reaching my destination i noticed that the camera in the driver side mirror was not functioning. Contacted dealer the following day and returned back to dealership to have the vehicle repaired (nearly 2 hour drive). Dealer stated that the issue with the camera and the issue with the automatic braking were related. Picked vehicle up on february 8th after vehicle was supposedly fixed. Arrived home and discovered same issue with camera not functioning. Took to dealer in concord, nh to try to repair again on 2/15/21 and picked up on same day. Dealer found loose pin in connector. Dealer stated that the camera had been replaced in october 2020 before i even owned the vehicle, so someone knew this was an issue. Took vehicle on a drive on 2/17/21. Alert on dash now says |
