Adaptive Cruise Control problems of the 2022 Ford Bronco

Adaptive cruise control was enabled and in use and the vehicle nearly rammed into the leading vehicle. The vehicle speed and distance became erratic and finally the vehicle had an alert that the acc was unavailable. This was a very scary incident and could have resulted in a collision. An earlier model Bronco had a misalignment radar module recall but it appears my vehicle should also be included in this recall as well.

On rare but recurring occasions, perhaps twice a month, powering on the adaptive cruise control results in one of two issues: 1. The acc will engage, but set itself for 15 mph, even if driving at highway speeds. When this occurs, the acc either cancels itself out, or remains on until it detects a malfunction, and then cancels itself out. 2. On rare occasion, the autonomous breaking will, upon powering on of the cruise control, seem to detect a phantom vehicle that is not there and attempt to aggressively brake. The Ford Bronco acc is unique in that it attempts to set the acc on when the system is powered on, unlike other vehicles where the driver must power it on and then set it.
