1 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 04/08/2023

Parking brake shows need service as is stuck on. I haven't used the parking brake. This is the 2nd time this has happened. Had it in and repaired once. Always sticks while driving on a trip. Smells like something is burning and I believe this to be a safety issue especially since its the 2nd time it has happened.

2 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 03/10/2021

Unknown. System failed to warn me that a car was approaching on my blind spot and if I had the warning it could have prevented an accident. Had a warning been given allowing me to know not to cross the lane I would have been more aware of the car approaching my lane and then the automatic emergency braking system could’ve kicked in to prevent this accident from happening in the first place.
