Jack G. in Florida swears his car is trying to kill him; Cooley explains that is a feeling some drivers may know on the road to autonomy.
What to do if you think your car’s cruise control is trying to kill you.
Jack G. from Florida writes:
„I drive a 2015 Audi S8 and love the car in every manner — except the CMBS/ACC in it has no guaranteed reliability. I have been in situations in traffic using the Stop & Go ACC system when a car will change lanes out of my path ahead and suddenly, out of nowhere ACC will rocket my car at up to the top speed I had the limiter set at, sending me hurtling toward a car ahead! “
Audi offers a somewhat confusing explanation of this in the official owner’s manual , saying the adaptive cruise control is — and isn’t — suited to use in stop-and-go traffic.
