Example complaints

Forward collision avoidance: “In most circumstances the adaptive cruise control (ADC) works well. There is one case where it does not, however. When ADC is active and the vehicle immediately in front shows, perhaps to make a turn, the ADC-equipped vehicle slows appropriately. The problem: Once the front vehicle is *well clear* of the driving lane, often operating 90 degrees to the marked lane on a perpendicular roadway, the ADC-equipped vehicle delays in sensing this and dos not resume the set speed. …”

NHTSA complaint #11748273, filed 2026-07

Other or unknown: “I heard only an unusual air or wind noise coming from above while driving at approximately 45 mph. I did not notice any rock, object, or other impact striking the panoramic sunroof before the incident. When the interior sunroof screen/cover slid open, I discovered that the panoramic sunroof glass had shattered. The airflow carried the shattered glass away, and some pieces fell inside the vehicle. I do not know what caused the glass to break. …”
