What owners wrote

I was involved in an accident with with my family. Pregnant wife and daughter. I got into a front end collision and I was at fault. The forward collision warning didn’t activate, Neither did the automatic emergency braking. This system has never failed on me and car has always stopped every time..

September 2025 CrashInjury

Upon proceeding through an intersection the van began to automatically break to a complete stop from approximately 30-35MPH, screeching tires, then shutting completely off. The entire dashboard cluster was dark as was the computer display for the radio/other controls. Looking down the "park" indicator was lit red. I pressed the break and the van started up and went into gear driving as if nothing occurred.
