Warnings problem #1

I was driving 50 mph and hit a very large deer. The airbag did not deploy and there was no warning.

Adaptive Cruise Control problem #2

Car has multiple electrical issues that can affect the safety of driving. Ocu module is the main one which allows for 911 services to be called in case of an accident. This module failed in September and now it failed again in January. The cruise control also sometimes doesn't work and the front assistance sensor doesn't seem to always work as indicated in the screenshots.

Automatic Emergency Braking problem #3

3 times in the past year, the automated braking activated with no other cars in front of me. Luckily, the cars behind me we following at a large distance and it was on a "slower" road around 50mph.
