Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When driving on the highway during rain the adaptive cruise control spontaneously stops and lashes on the dash display that it is no longer set, the car decelerates rapidly, leaving the driver scrambling to determine what has happened. The systems involved are the adaptive cruise control and Toyota safety sense.”
