Driving down road at approximately 30mph, no obstructions in road or vehicles in front of me and the car suddenly slowed down to approximately 10mph due to automatic braking system engaging.

New Jersey: While driving to work (I am a healthcare worker) at 5:30 am on Route 9 North in Manalapan NJ, at a speed of approximately 50 miles per hour, the brake warning light went on and the car unexpectedly slammed to a full stop. No car was immediately behind me or they would have crashed into me. My purse, coffee and book on front seat went flying to the dashboard. Prior to this event happening, the Brake warning light would go off even if no one was in front of me or anywhere around me. the Honda dealership in Freehold NJ dismissed my concern and said there is nothing they can do without recreating the problem. I called the Freehold dealership and was told the service manager was out for a month, no one is covering for him. I asked to speak to someone else in the service department and they told me to drive down and they will have a technician drive with me to see the problem. I told them it was random and never happened before, but to no avail. I asked if I could turn off the Collusion Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) and they said no. Just to adjust the ACC (low speed follow) to long. I insisted on being seen today, but am concerned that this will happen again.

The automatic braking system engaged without warning and without reason as I was not within close proximity to any other vehicles or obstructions.

I was driving on lower level on Manhattan Bridge toward Manhattan, New York. It was about 10:30am. The car experienced a hard brake while I was driving with no obvious obstacle ahead or sides. The most closest vehicle was in front, on my right side lane, which had at least 5 car distance.

Vehicle randomly slammed on brakes without driver touching the brake. There were no obstacles or other cars in front of the vehicle at the time. Automatic emergency braking was on. The only warning that came up was the”Brake” warning as the vehicle was slamming on the brakes. Luckily the car behind the vehicle was able to move to another lane to avoid a collision. The vehicle was taken to the Honda dealer and inspected. They were unable to find the cause of the random braking or to reproduce it.

The brake warning system beeped and forcefully applied the brakes when I was driving approximately 30mph. The only "obstacle" was a flat steel plate on the road. Thankfully no one was behind me. Everything in my car slide forward and off the seats due to the force of the braking. I also regularly get the beep warning when I am driving up a steep hill near where I live. Thankfully the brakes do not engage. I never had anything inspected. I also get beeping when backing up with nothing in the way. And recently backed into a truck bumper and there was no beeping. I just assume that the systems are irritating and don't work properly.
