With the rapid development of automotive electronic technology, more and more technology configurations are installed on new cars, such as active braking system, which can actively produce braking effect to slow down the vehicle and avoid serious accidents when the vehicle encounters a sudden dangerous situation. but the electronic system sometimes has hidden dangers. Recently, a Mercedes-Benz "played" on the highway and slammed on the brakes, resulting in a rear-end collision.

According to media reports, Mr. Wang's Mercedes-Benz E-Class car suddenly slowed to a halt while driving at high speed on October 4 and was rear-ended two seconds later. "when I was driving on the highway, there was no car ahead and the automatic brake was activated, which caused the rear-end collision, and the automatic brake could not be operated manually," Mr. Wang said.

The driving record showed that Mr. Wang was driving his Mercedes-Benz normally on the highway when the car suddenly slowed down and stopped. About two seconds later, the rear-end car crashed into Mr. Wang's Mercedes-Benz, resulting in a rear-end collision. And it can be clearly seen that there are no other vehicles in front of the Mercedes-Benz.

According to Mr. Wang, at first, the person in charge of the Mercedes-Benz 4S store thought it might be man-made and accidentally touched the manual brake while driving. Later, the person in charge drove another E300 for a test drive. When he came back, he apologized to me. He said his calculation was wrong.

The relevant staff of Luoyang Giant Leye Automobile sales and Service Co., Ltd. said that Mr. Wang's Mercedes-Benz needs further inspection, which may be that the manufacturer sent someone to the store to check. The after-sales manager said that we are communicating with the manufacturer and will give feedback to Mr. Wang as soon as we have a reply.
