I was backing up when my car just accelerated like crazy and ran over a huge brick mailbox. It was like my car was possess, it became a crazy 4 wheel drive.

2018 Kia Sorento sxl the aeb ( autonomous emergency braking ) does not work as advertised or expected..this feature is advertised as aeb and also on the electronic dash as aeb but according to the very definition of autonomous meaning without human intervention to stop the vehicle to avoid a crash does not work and can not be relied on to avoid any type of crash at any speed and I hope the safety board will make Kia take action to correct this problem post hast. This vehicle has been to the dealer shop and they assure me all is working and it will stop the auto from having a crash or at the least minimize the severity of the crash and also give you a warning 1 to 2 seconds before the crash which is totally absurd and also false advertising.please look on the internet and you will find numerous complaints of this problem with no resolve. Kia needs to make this work as advertised or quit putting this on vehicles and then falsely advertising it has aeb will you please test this and help.....
