Official DVSA recall text
Component
UNINTENDED BRAKING MAY OCCUR
Defect
A possible issue with the software in the Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS) can under certain rare driving circumstances cause the incorrect or misdetection of objects or obstacles in front of the vehicle that do not actually pose a collision potential. This can cause the inapropriate application of the brake system even if the object is not present or even moving away from the vehicle and does not pose a rish of a collision. However the sudden application of the brakes may lead to a collision with following vehicles and result in possible injury to the vehicle occupants
Remedy
Recall all affected vehicles to have the CMBS software replaced with a new version.
