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

“Cruse control will sometimes disengage and display these error messages: Active Distance Assist Inoperative Active Brake Assist Functions Limited See Operator's Manual Cruse control kicks out and the power cuts off abruptly. After some variable time the cruise control function will work again. This is an intermittent problem that occurs without warning. When cruise control set to 65-70 mph, the deceleration is very pronounced, as if brakes are applied. This can be very starling to the driver, passengers, and any vehicles tailing behind. …”
