Description of the problem	I had an accident @ 5pm-entering a busy road from a driveway-hit the side door of a car racing lefttoright in front of me. My fault of course. I heard no beep warning from the so-called collision mitigation sysem (?), nor did i feel any braking. Subsequently i tested this feature in my driveway where i slowly drove the car forward toward my large garage, i would have hit the garage-no beep-no braking. Then, in a snow storm, i had to brake soasto not hit a large truck skidding in front of me. I missed hitting him by inches. Again, i heard no beep and felt no braking. Dealer tested this feature on my car by letting it go towards brushes in a carwash, i heard beep warning, but again felt no braking. Dealer said system is working properly. And so-i conclude that whenever i hear any kind of warning beeo, i should manually and quickly 'hit the brakes', no matter what. After all, i have to keep my eyes on the road for god's sake. I am not happy.
