Honda Sensing is dangerous and can't be disabled

Tldr: go look at consumer reports reviews for driver assist features specifically to see that this isn't just me - Honda is in the bottom 3rd overall, and dead last (just behind Acura) for its emergency braking system. Less than a week after getting my 2018 Fit EX, the CMBS malfunctioned on the highway, slamming on the brakes despite the road being completely clear. Thankfully there was also no one behind me, or this absolutely would have caused a high speed collision. The dealer informed me that this was normal for the system, that I "can't expect it to be perfect" (it's the brakes. Yes, I do expect a critical system like that to be perfect), and that they could not permanently disable it. They advised me to just turn it off every time I start the car, which is obviously an accident waiting to happen (hilariously, this is what 2/3 of the people who work there reported doing). I immediately got rid of the car, even though I took a hit of a few thousand to do so (and wound up with an older, higher mileage car even so), because I wasn't willing to risk serious injury with so flawed a system. Worse than driving a Pinto. Not sure why 3 class action lawsuits aren't enough to get Honda to at least provide a way to permanently disable this, but it will be a cold day in hell before I get into a car that has Honda Sensing enabled.

I love this car! For a small fuel-efficient vehicle it is extremely roomy and runs great.
