As I was driving, my car randomly came to a quick, abrupt and forceful break. It began making a beeping noise and something quickly flashed on my dashboard. It disappeared before I had a chance to read it but I remember it flashing “red”.

Even a small bump in the road (not even a big speed bump) sometimes causes the front bumper to rise and strike the bracket holding the forward collision warning sensor. That throws the sensor out of calibration and makes it unreliable. The tech at auto nation collision in las vegas told me this is a common problem.

The FCW and the AEB lights come on periodically stating that the system is malfunctioning. Took it to the dealer and they said it was the sensor for the FCW and AEB that has failed. Other vehicles around my mileage and year and model have had the same issues.

Intermittent problem with emergency braking system. When obstruction is detected the emergency braking system will override all use of manual braking. The brake pedal will go to the floor without activating any form of brakes for a few seconds and the automatic brakes do nothing.
