1 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 07/06/2024

I have had this car for 2 years (13k miles). . . . Intermittently the car stops short when backing up. This has happened at least 15-20 times, backing out of my garage. It also happened twice backing out of a parking space. The most recent incident was driving on the hwy at 70mph and the emergency brake warning light came on causing the car to swerve, stop for a few seconds. Needless to say this was very scary. I am attaching a link with the same or similar complaints: [xxx] I have been in touch with corporate. The car is currently at the dealer ship and has been for 2 weeks. They are trying to duplicate the problem, but it is so intermittent, I doubt they will find anything. I was told they have to keep it for 30 days, then. . . . I don't know what the next step is. I love this car, but no longer feel safe in it. Please advise how you can help. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
