In owners’ own words

Collision avoidance mileage not reported 9 mo in service
I was driving down the freeway, around 4pm there wasn't much traffic and the nearest vehicle in front of me was abour 100 meters ahead of me when my 2022 Honda Insight activated the automatic emergency brakes and slowed down for about a second before dis-activating them. Since the vehicle ahead of me was not close at all, there should have been no reason for the automatic brakes to activate. I was lucky there was little traffic at the time and no car was immediately behind me as that could have caused a great accident.
Collision avoidance mileage not reported 1.0 yr in service
Twice, this car has engaged emergency brakes with cars behind me and no cars in front of me. Several other times, the "Brake now" indicator has come on with no cars nearby.
Collision avoidance mileage not reported 2.4 yr in service
Brake light warning flashed quickly but there was no one in front of me. This happened 2 times without any automatic brakes being applied. Lane assist warning showed on the dash but I was in the center of the lane. This has happened 7 or 8 times. The steering wheel did not vibrate.
