For reference, I've had a Honda with adaptive cruise control for about 10 months, and it's done that once. But I don't think it is designed to brake that hard no matter what.

I had a late model Mercedes with radar and automatic emergency braking. After it tried to kill me twice I sold it. The dealer checked the system and pronounced it A-ok, which was enough reason for me to get rid of the car if it had been pronounced broken I could have lived with it. But if that's the kind of quality they ship then I don't want to be responsible for it.
