FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I want to report that I experienced the random emergency braking that you are currently investigating. It only happened once, about a month ago: I was driving along a paved country road on a straightaway (~40mph). Daytime/clear, dry paved roads. There was no traffic in either direction and no wildlife in my path. The car braked very hard very suddenly. The brake warning light did come on. Had there been someone behind me, my car would have been rear-ended. I was alone and uninjured. I did not report this to the dealer, even though I'm POSITIVE that there was no visible object in the roadway that would trigger the sudden braking.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
The emergency braking anti collision system will engage when I am driving and there is nothing in front of me, regardless if there is a car or even a shadow the system will start to engage. I've had this happen on multiple occasions whether driving on a highway or neighborhood street. This has not been inspected by anyone yet and has not yielded any damage or accidents just yet.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Vehicle was placed into service June 2018 and ever since randomly will apply the brakes without driver input even when no obstacles are present. This has happened more than 25 times. There is no rhyme or reason for it, it just happens out of the blue. Luckily, the driver can override the automatic braking by quickly depressing the gas pedal.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was driving and there were no objects or obstructions near my car when all of a sudden the car randomly breaks on its own for no reason. It startled me and jolted me forward. Luckily I was only going about 40mph at the time and nobody was behind me. I thought it was strange and didn't think anything of it. Then I saw an article about other people having these same issues and it reminded me about what happened. I traded the car in and told the dealer what happened. They said they would take a look at it, but never heard anything about what caused it or why it happened.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
For the past three years, I have leased a 2018 Honda accord which I got for my wife and my child due to the "safety features " Of the vehicle. But all of a sudden throughout the years it has been breaking out of nowhere while driving on the highway with no objects obstructing front or sides. It was a kind of scary going from 70 mph for almost a complete stop in the times that it happened luckily there was no vehicle following close behind of could have been a pretty bad rear-end collision. I never took the vehicle in for repairs as it did it a total of 5 times in the three years. Now that I have purchased the vehicle it has a front camera issue that has disabled all safety driving features which are being looked into. The fact that other know Honda owners have experienced the same issue seems like a Honda needs to look into this problem.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, SERVICE BRAKES
I purchashed the Honda Accord new and it has 17,800+ miles. As I am driving usually highway driving it just suddenly decides to brake without my foot on the brake pedal. There doesn't seem to be any regular pattern. It has happened several times always on the highway at speed. A week ago it happened on a Sunday morning, changed lanes to ge into the off ramp lane and without warning it applied the brake. Fortunately there was nobody behind me. Thank you and if I can provide any furthe information please let me know. I do think there should be a recall issued to fix the problem.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
My vehicle randomly applies the brakes during normal driving with no obstacle in its way. This happens intermittently but poses danger as there will be no car in front of me so applying the brakes and halting my car could cause the car behind me to drive into my vehicle.

The adaptive cruise and emergency braking systems. Driving on the highway the car suddenly brakes as if a car is right in front of you. There is no car in front. The dealer has not been able to confirm as this happens so at random. There was no warning that the system would suddenly brake. This has happened 3-4 times in the past year

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
From time to time my AEB will flash on my dash. A lot of my driving is highway so I can be driving anywhere between 40-65 mph given the road I'm on. On two separate occasions my car has flashed and braked abruptly while I was doing about 50 mph. The brake indication still flashes sometimes, the most recent was today.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
The car will automatically brake itself when no car in anywhere close to being in front of me. This only happens when I am going from the current lane to a left hand turn lane. It only happens when I do NOT have my blinkers activated. The braking does NOT happen when I use my blinkers. My best guess is the the use of the blinkers deactivates or overrides the sensors. This issue only happens at one particular turn near my house. I believe it has something to do with the lines painted on the road and how the sensors are reading them, but that is just a theory. This happens every time I drive by this intersection.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I will just be driving down the highway and sometimes the orange BRAKE light will light up and sometimes it will light up and just start slowing down. Several times I will be the only car moving thru an intersection with a green light and it will light up BRAKE and hit the brake. Not being ready to brake for no reason it throws us forward luckily we wear our seat belts, but I'm pretty sure safety equipment isn't supposed to do that.
