I've been getting this message a few times a week, for no reason I can discern. I'm not using cruise control when it comes up. Does anyone else get these for no reason?

I had this happen about a year ago every now and then but hasn’t happened since.

I got messages like that when the radar sensor was blocked (surface between the grill shutters was covered with snow/slush).

If you are getting that message I’m guessing that there may be an issue with your radar. Maybe worth a dealer visit.

Followup: I realized that the Fastrak tag I had put on the windshield just behind the rear view mirror was probably blocking the camera in the mirror. So I moved the tag and so far I haven't seen the message again.

I am getting this as well. Clear weather, nothing behind the mirror, not using cruise control. Just randomly pops up and then disappears. Any updates on this?

Same here. No rhyme or reason.

I'm experiencing a similar issue, but I'm not receiving any messages. Occasionally, while driving with cruise control turned off and one-pedal braking activated, my car continues at its current speed without braking when I lift my foot off the accelerator. This happens about once a week, usually shortly after starting my drive. It behaves as if adaptive cruise control is engaged and the no-pedal function is disabled. It is rather disconcerting when it happens.

Just another +1, in an existing thread. So proud of myself for not starting a new thread.

Happened twice today. With clear weather, although it had been stormy over the weekend.

Your car reported this code today that does not appear in the code history prior to today. The ABS module lost comms with the IPMA, so you got a warning letting you know that adaptive braking is not functional. Not sure why the module lost comms, but if the issue persists, a dealer visit may be warranted.

All the other codes are stored codes and not active faults; those can be ignored.
