BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS

I am reporting a safety concern involving my 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz Pro S RWD. While reversing at approximately 3 mph out of a parking spot, the vehicle suddenly and automatically applied the brakes with extreme force even though there was no obstacle behind the vehicle and no apparent reason for emergency braking. The stop was so abrupt that it felt as though the vehicle had struck a solid object and caused the occupants to experience whiplash-like movement. The braking appears to have been caused by the vehicle's Maneuver Braking/parking collision-avoidance system. This was not simply a warning or normal parking-assistance intervention; the vehicle unexpectedly brought itself to a violent stop. I am concerned that false activation of this system creates its own safety hazard. An unexpected full-force stop while maneuvering could injure occupants, cause a driver to lose control of the situation, or create a collision risk with another vehicle or road user who is not expecting the vehicle to stop suddenly. There was no visible obstacle that would explain the intervention. It's possible the camera system was confused by some shade during a sunny day. I believe this incident should be investigated as a potential defect involving false activation of the automatic braking system on the Volkswagen ID. Buzz.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

The contact owns a 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz. The contact stated that while driving and stopping at a stoplight for approximately 20 seconds, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated and crashed into a 2022 Jeep Wrangler. The vehicle crashed into the other vehicle approximately three times, causing the other vehicle to crash into another vehicle. The brake pedal was depressed but failed to respond as intended. The vehicle was turned off and later restarted and driven to the residence. The manufacturer, Volkswagen Group of America, was contacted by phone. The contact attempted to obtain the data from the EDR. The failure mileage was approximately 6,600.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Twice now, my center touch screen display has failed to operate upon startup. Restarting the vehicle does not fix the problem.The problem is not able to be replicated for the dealer as it happens at random(twice over 13,000 miles). No warnings predicated the error, nor would they be displayable since the screen is off. The vehicle is able to be driven under the error. The backup camera is not usable under the error making for a very dangerous error. The voice assistant does not function under the error(a potential alternative method of accessing the controls that are lost when the screen is in error). Under the second error event, the driver display additionally did not turn on. The vehicle would allow me to drive but did not display speed, gear selection, miles, or any warnings. Drive, Reverse, Park, turn signals, horn, all lighting, regenerative braking and windshield wipers were tested and were functional. All HVAC controls are only accessible through the screen. Under the second error event it was raining and I was unable access those controls to defrost the front windshield. After the vehicle sits in the off position for 30 minutes, the error vanishes.
