| Description of the problem | Under certain lightning or glare conditions, the cr-v's automatic braking comes on. It recently happened to me on three occasions. In the first it was on the t. R. Bridge, leading into dc, at 7 am, when the sunlight from the east was causing glare. The cr-v braked automatically while going at about 45 mph when there was no vehicle in front of mine. In the second and third instances, it was when i was on i-66 east on the overpass over the capital beltway at 8:30 pm traveling at about 55 mph. The cr-v's "brake" warning came on when there was no vehicle in front or next to the vehicle. The glare from the overhead lighting for the highway signs is quite strong in that location. This is a serious safety issue, since the vehicle can brake without warning in the middle of a highway at highways speeds, potentially causing the driver to lose control or to be rear ended at high speeds. |
