Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The forward collision warning (fcw) does not work. Info I have received is that fcw was part of the adaptive cruise control (acc) and only works as part of that system. The Chrysler manual does not say that the acc has to be on for fcw to work. Fcw is a completely different topic from acc in the manual.

In my car the fcw activates at times when the acc is off and it picks up something on the right such as a car in front of me turning right onto another road. …”

Turning the engine off and restarting removes all indications of the problems except for the check engine light, which goes off eventually. …”
