Here's a very short Youtube video showing a couple of instances where the car rapidly slows down to avoid a vehicle that is moving away from us and happens after the car in front has left our lane. In one case there was a person tailgating us and we scared the heck out of them. This is not an April Fool's post.
You'll hear us commenting less with fear/surprise and more in frustration -- that's because the car had already done this a few times. Unfortunately the puny SD card in the dash cam had rolled over the prior instances already. The first time was pretty startling.
Factoids that pertain across all of these:
- Firmware 6.2 -- installed last night
- Cruise control engaged
- Speed is just under 60mph
- TACC is not aware of the car in front ("cruise" gizmo is grey, not blue/TACC)
- TACC is set to the maximum separation distance
Do other people experience this in similar circumstances, so this is a feature not a bug? Or is this something I should push along to the service team?
