As auto companies continue to fix buggy touch-
screen infotainment systems, a survey of new-
vehicle buyers has found there’s a different
technology posing problems: driver assist
systems such as automatic emergency braking.
The annual survey by J.D. Power found
that as the electronic safety systems find
their way into more mainstream models,
buyers are reporting more issues in their first
three months of ownership. The problems are
more than just a pain for new-vehicle owners.
