What owners report
I was using ACC on the freeway when the car in front of me abruptly stopped. I felt the car decelerate, but it didnât feel like the car was slowing enough. By the time I manually pressed the brakes my car skidded and hit the stopped car in front of me. There was a flashing light that happened right before I hit the car warning me to brake. Iâm worried that my carâs friction brakes were not activated by ACC. I will be taking it to an autobody shop soon for repair.

What's more, the door handle flips back quickly when opened manually, resulting in possible injury due to getting fingers caught.
