    Holy shit I brought back a rental once because it applied the brakes when I didn’t want it to I can’t imagine a car thinking it’s smarter than the driver and overriding his input to brake.

      The car I drive right now does this. There’s a way to turn it off but I haven’t figured it out. It’s my family member’s car and she hates that feature too so she turned it off before, but it somehow got turned back on and we can’t figure it out anymore agony-deep

      It also brakes at completely random times. Approaching a stopped car, wall, much slower car, etc? Nothing. On a completely empty road except there’s a car not in my lane but in the turn lane which is turning off to a different street? Slam the brakes. Make it make sense
