The forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking system activated and applied the brakes hard. There was no vehicle, pedestrian, obstacle, or hazard ahead of me, and no vehicle behind me or beside me. The roadway was clear and dry. The sun was low in the sky, and the vehicle was crossing a metal expansion joint on an overpass at the moment of activation. I believe the low sun angle, the expansion joint, or both caused a false object detection by the forward-facing camera or radar. The service brakes themselves functioned correctly. The failure is in the forward sensing and decision logic, which commanded a braking event with no object present. The deceleration was severe and unexpected. I sustained sharp pain in my neck and shoulder. Had any vehicle been following me, this would have caused a rear-end collision at highway speed. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms before the event, and none afterward. I had driven the vehicle for seven days with no prior indication of a fault. I exited the highway immediately and drove back to the rental location on local streets at low speed because I no longer trusted the vehicle. I returned it the following morning when the Avis office opened, more than a day early, and reported the defect. Being a rental vehicle it was not available to me for inspection. The rental company has advised that it was taken out of fleet for inspection after my return, that there are no open recalls on it, and that it will not release internal service records to me. I do not know the outcome of that inspection. To my knowledge the fault has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer, independent service center, or manufacturer representative. No police report was filed because no collision occurred.
