While driving on the highway, I had the cruise control activated at approximately 70mph. My vehicle has adaptive cruise control and on two separate occasions within one day, there was no one in front of me but the car started braking hard. Fortunately, no one was behind me or they probably would have rear-ended me as it took me a few seconds to cancel the cruise control since it caught me by surprise. In at least one of the instances, there was a large tractor-trailer to the right of me so I'm not sure if it perceived it's shadow as being a vehicle. I bought this vehicle new in 2013 and this was the first time that the adaptive cruise control caused the vehicle to brake when no one was actually in front of me.
Adaptive cruise control applied hard braking while vehicle traveling at 70 mph with no vehicle in front of the reported malfunctioning vehicle. Braking was severe enough to propel occupants against seat belts and caused the vehicle to veer to the left with the potential to cause a rear end collission.
The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. While driving approximately 55 mph with the cruise control activated, the cruise control would not deactivate and the vehicle would not slow down or stop when the brakes were applied. The vehicle proceeded through a red light and crashed into two other vehicles. A police report was filed and there were no injuries reported. Prior to activating the cruise control, the brakes operated normally. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 15,000.
