Example complaints

“After starting up from a stop, city safety activated with an emergency brake activation, we were almost rear ended by the car behind us. There was no reason for the activation of the brakes, vehicle in front was accelerating away from us, plenty of space between us, and space was increasing. This occurred on 3 more occasions before I could get to the dealer. My wife has not driven the car since, as she no longer feels safe, worried about self, and the baby due to hard stop or if rear ended.”
