Forward collision warning malfunction made the safety feature become safety issues. I have to turn it off before I drive. Otherwise it automatically preforms hard break/ stop for no reasons, no matter how how fast am I driving, where and when. Even pulling out from parking lot w/ 5/10 mph at midnight when there is absolutely no one and nothing around or on the middle of the highway w/ 60mph in the afternoon.

While in the number 2 lane on the freeway, using cruise control, we approached a semi truck in the number 3 lane. We were moving more quickly than the semi truck and did not change lanes nor did the semi truck. The freeway was straight. The automatic braking system turned on and engaged the brakes when our car reaches approximately the rear axle or is next to the back middle of the semi truck. Brakes engage in the same fashion they do as if there was a hazard in front of us. To be clear, nothing at all is in front of us, just the semi truck to our right.

June 16,2017, I put the car in reverse and attempted to leave the parking space. All wheel brakes were locked/the car stalled. 2-3 minutes later, they freed up. On Feb.15,2018 while waiting in traffic on rt.580 in dunedin, they locked up again. 2-3 minutes later, they freed up and I shut off my emergency flashers. March 28,2018, ditto in my driveway after just backing out of the garage. Two VW dealers on Mar.22 and again on April 5, their computers could find no problems with the braking system. My scan of the internet all pointed to the master cylinder as the problem.
