Lane keeping assistance jerks car into turn lanes at highway speeds. Happens consistently on MN State Hwy 316. I usually disable it to prevent an accident.
The auto brake suddenly braked hard and it was scary. The car reported a collision warning red light for a few seconds. Luckily, there was no car close behind me. While I was driving at about 70 miles per hour on the highway, there was no car in front of me to worry about. There was probably a car driving in the next lane. After the sudden brake, everything seemed to be back to normal. This type of sudden auto brake happened once in late 2019, on a local drive, I thought it was a falling leaf or something. But this time on the highway, there was nothing in front the car.
The problem occurs when making a left-hand turn. I'm in the left-hand turn lane waiting for oncoming traffic to clear. When it is clear, I proceed with my left-hand turn. After a short distance, the Forward Collision Warning indicator flashes, the brakes are applied very hard, and the car stalls. I am often left in the oncoming lane, with a stalled car. I have to put it in park, start it then put it into drive to move forward again. This takes a bit of time. This is 1) very startling, 2) makes it likely for me to be rear-ended, and 3) my car can easily be hit head-on by a car in the oncoming lane. I luckily have not been in an accident yet. This has occurred at least 5 times, with one additional time, the indicator and brakes being applied but the car did not stall. The dealer has been notified twice about this problem, and says there is no known solution they know about. This is a very serious problem. In all instances, there are NO cars in sight in the oncoming lanes. These are all false alarms. The fact that there has not been a read-end collision yet is very surprising.
