Radar. I remember some of his nonsense about disambiguating, despite the previous AP disambiguating just fine. Same with the rain sensor. This is a cheap part.

To be fair, the ghost brakes on TACC have reduced. But I tend to control my wipers with voice.

I still get just as much phantom breaking. I’ve narrowed it down to the car using map speed limit data and losing track of where it is. It’s very consistent on 5 south in LA. The same spot every day.
