  1. Forward collision avoidance, May 4, 2023

    The contact owns a 2023 Mercedes-Benz C300. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the Forward Collision Avoidance system erroneously activated, causing the vehicle to abruptly stop in the middle of the road. The failure occurred on three separate occasions and each time no other vehicle or object was nearby to cause the Forward Collision Avoidance system to become activated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who replaced sensors and recalibrated the Forward Collision Avoidance system, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 1,000.
