Was stopped at a red light behind the car in front of me. I was stopped at a appropriate distance from the car in front of me. I had my right foot on the brake pedal, when the car accelerated on its own. It launched its self into the car ahead of me. I looked down and my foot was still on the brake pedal. None of the air bags inside the car deployed.
Mcu failure while driving on the freeway. I was driving with autopilot on the freeway. The mcu failed and disengage the autopilot but there was no audio warning. Almost crashed into the wall of the hov lane.
