“The adaptive cruise control has been malfunction since I bought the car.

I don't have pictures but I do have a small video. Please let me know if I can upload that somewhere for you to view. Also my radio reset to all the default station when I turn the car off. The dealer replace the sensor or camera that tracks the acc, but I'm still have the trouble. …”

Additionally the adaptive cruise fails to recognize cars in its lane and will randomly panic brake when there is no vehicle in the lane, it appears picking up a vehicle in the next lane over. This occurs on straight roads as well as curved, with flat as well as varied elevation. …”
