2024 Cadillac Lyriq Back-over prevention (rear camera) Problems

“I have had two incidents with the automatic braking system occur in a short period of time. The Lyriq is not a car that I drive very often so when the incidents occurred in the last 2 of the 3 times of driving the car it makes me scared to drive the car again. The first incident occurred while driving at approximately 35 mph. The road I was on had 4 lanes with a turn lane in the middle dividing the 4 lanes with 2 lanes on each side of the turn lane. …”

“Driving my car on the highway at speeds of about 65, and the charging port door suddenly opens. When I slow down then the door closes on it own. Seems like the housing for the door isnt made tight enough to stay closed during highway driving.”

“What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request?

The first failure occurred when the car triggered the emergency parking brake on its own while we were driving in traffic at 30 mph. We narrowly avoided being rear ended. This is the incident I've detailed in the fields below. …”

The car believes there is an object or person behind the car; I would imagine because the rear camera can see the rain. It is difficult to even move the car at all, and is a major safety concern. The last time this occurred, I was backing out of my driveway at a slow speed. This also occurred backing out of a parking spot at a slow speed. I hesitate to drive this car in rain because of the issue. …”

“I put the car in reverse and released the parking brake. The car started to move backwards. However, the back passenger door was wide open, and the passenger was standing outside the car in the path of the open door. The door hit a guide wire running from the top of a power pole to the sidewalk beside the car. The wire pulled the door backwards, destroying it. This was fortunate. Without the wire in the way, I would’ve had not heard the crashing of the door and would have continued to drive over the person standing beside the car as the passenger door knocked him down. …”
