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

“While cruising at 36mph, we decided to initiate the cruise control. Upon reaching a slow-down traffic ahead, the brakes were applied to slow the vehicle, however the cruise control did not disengage and the brakes did not stop the vehicle. The brakes were pressed three times and still the car could not stop. We were in a two-lane road with an opposite direction lane on the other side of the grassy median. …”

NHTSA complaint #11737303, filed 2026-05

“There are major software issues. The vehicle brakes unexpectedly. It is completely random and extremely dangerous. The satellite radio content is altered with the use of A.I. . It is similar to Deepfake scam. I can scan the network and send logs if needed.”
