Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving straight about 25mph along a an otherwise empty residential street. Experienced multiple micro-bursts of sudden, brief, violent, unintended braking. Driver's foot was nowhere near the brake pedal. Braking was so violent that the wheels locked up and made skidding sounds and occupants were shaken. Each incidence of braking was very short, perhaps a fraction of a second. The first occurrence (while traveling ~25mph) there were about four separate brakes within a few seconds. This occurred only two blocks from home. …”
