A safety concern

2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Limited 4dr SUV AWD (1.6L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric hybrid 6A)
My red Santa Fe is beautiful to look at and I'm impressed with the fuel economy of my hybrid limited. It also has a very smooth ride and comfortable seats. The concern is with my electronics. They do not like hot days... from the tech screen to my hatch being stuck open when it was 110 degrees outside... the heat can make electronics act up. The worse problem has been with the FORWARD … COLLISION AVOIDANCE. It has gone off a number of times when no other cars are even near me! It is a danger because it happens when you least expect it. You will be driving along with lots of distance from cars around you and suddenly, the steering wheel stiffens dramatically and the car feels out of control for a few seconds... it is very scary for the driver. I believe this issue will cause a crash sooner or later for someone. I wish I had known about this issue before I bought the car. It would have changed my purchase. From my research on line, this is not something that the dealer has any luck in fixing. Please be aware this will be an issue with Santa Fe if you choose to go with this choice.
UPDATE! In addition to the forward collision going off without any warning... please be sure to test drive this car at low speeds below 5 mph in a parking lot and press on the brakes... my car brakes are annoyingly "grabby" at slow speeds... when going at a slow speed and I barely press lightly on the brake to come to a stop ... the next thing I know, the car will act like I am slamming on the brakes! It's so annoying and is so bad for my neck... I'm serious... please be sure to try it a number of times in a parking lot to be sure that your car does not do this. From my research this is due to the Hyundai hybrid braking system... because of the braking issues, the forward collision problems, and the horribly small and limiting door storage in all doors... I had to lower my rating and suggest others to check out the Toyota Crown and the Toyota Venza before choosing this SUV. I'm super sad that I did not know about the Crown before buying this suv.
