Auto pilot on navigation was on for at least 20 minutes without any issues, then auto pilot decided to sudden slow down (still straight), an utility van almost rear ended me. When this happened, both left and right lanes were clear no vehicles, the car in front of me did not slow down. There was no reason to slow down but somehow auto pilot decided to sudden slow down, luckily, it still kept straight. The van behind me quickly switched lane to the left and avoided the crash.
This has happened a couple times already, but all were FSD on local (less then 60 kilometer / hour roads), not on highway (100+).
Sent message to tesla, here is the response.

This is very similar to SF Bay accident, except in my case the steering wheel kept straight.

Our team has reviewed the data you submitted and also performed a hardware check remotely to confirm there are no faults with the driver's assistant features,all systems reported no
faults.
Having said that Traffic-Aware Cruise Control may occasionally cause the vehicle to brake when not required or when you are not expecting it.This can be caused by closely following a vehicle ahead,detecting vehicles or objects in adjacent lanes (especially on curves), etc.
This does not indicate there is an issue with the hardware of the vehicle but rather expected behaviour of a vehicle system which is still in the beta testing phase.
If you have any other concerns about the behaviour,limitations and features of autopilotpa refer to the owner's manual Given that there is no need to have a technician attend the vehicle we will cancel the upcoming appointment. Please feel free to respond to this message if you have any questions.
