The contact owns a 2019 Acura Ilx. The contact stated that while driving 50 mph downhill, the vehicle accelerated unintendedly and was pulling from side to side. The contact firmly held the steering wheel to keep the vehicle in the intended lane. Additionally, the contact depressed the brake pedal simultaneously, but the vehicle hesitated to respond, causing the braking distance to be extended. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The messages "collision mitigation braking system problem", "high beams problem", "lane departure failure", and "adaptive cruise control failure" were displayed. The contact was able to drive to the residence. The vehicle was taken to an Acura dealer, where it was diagnosed that the sensing system cameras needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 33,000.
This his happened 3 times now. I have been driving on the highway with no cars in front of me in my lane within a quarter mile, and the braking since starts flashing a warning and starts to hard break, it is not only startling but very dangerous. This happened the 3rd time in a year. I usually try to disable it to prevent these issues but it auto turns itself back on every time I start the car so I sometimes forget to turn it off. It is not only startling but has caused sligh injury to myself because of the sudden breaking.
