TLX Tech 3.5L LV6

forward collision warning and braking camera false alarm

This problem happens inconsistently and is therefore difficult to duplicate when I took the car in. The problem occurs when there are no cars around but the camera falsely detects a car or object in the roadway and flashes "Brake" on the display.

I took it to the dealer and they told me that the camera was misaligned (again folks, the car had less than 100 miles on it at that time) and it was fixed. Now I am getting the same issue but at different angles, like going under a canopy or a low hanging traffic lights. Interestingly enough, now I could approach a vehicle in front of me at any speed and the warning does not come on but when going under a traffic light it blinks and flashes "Brake".

I am very frustrated with the quality of this vehicle and wished I had stayed with my first choice of an Audi A6!

If you read this before buying this vehicle, give it some thoughts, it can get annoying and unsafe. I tried to give the car back at 75 miles but they would not take it back. Unlucky for me.
