Seems appropriate here. Had an interesting experience with our new Charger yesterday with FCW and active braking.
In short, the car totally mis read a traffic situation and the 6 piston brembos stopped the car dead in its tracks...way quicker than the car behind us could have stopped. Luckily the driver behind us had given adequate (too much actually for city traffic) room in front of him, or that collision avoidance system would have 100% caused a collision.
Word of caution for anyone with newer vehicles with this system.
I have had those situations also with the FCA collision avoidance. Was there nothing in the path or did it just activate even though you had adequate distance?
