    How does the Autonomous emergency braking work?

    Reference the Autonomous emergency braking, the UK web page says. The Autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system automatically activates the brake when it detects dangerous sudden brake activation by the car ahead by reading the front radar signal from the Smart cruise control (SCC) and the...

    Is my Automatic Emergency Braking not working?

    I've had the car for about a week and a half and not once have I had the AEB flash a warning signal even when I've been very close to the rear of other cars (was trying to test it)? I've always had to brake myself. How can I really know if my AEB system is working correctly?

    Second Generation Automatic Emergency Braking System Question

    I understand that this system uses both onboard forward looking cameras and the Smart Cruise Control System to determine if & when the automatic emergency braking system will be activated. Also, the driver must first put a "checkmark" beside the automatic emergency braking system in the driver...

    Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)

    I've had a 2015 3.8 AWD Ultimate for almost three months. One thing I never got to try (for obvious reasons) was the Automatic Emergency Braking system. Today I was driving on the highway at about 65MPH and had auto-cruise set. Traffic was moving just fine, but someone made a quick maneuver and...

    Emergency parking brake failure

    Well, here's one I hope you don't encounter. Went out to my month-old Genesis, started it up, put it in Drive and nothing. EPB wouldn't release. Drive, park, neutral, reverse, pull, push on EPB switch. Turned car on/off...nothing. The Amber EPB light on the dash just glared at me from the...

    Hello I was stopped at a light in my 2014 Genesis 3.8 and a bell alarmed and I got a red message saying Emergency Break Automatically applied. I tried to go forward and the car would not move and a message saying release Parking break came on. I tried to use the switch by the LDWS and nothing...

    Spare emergency Fob

    Question? I had a third fob made for my gen. for emergency use. My original plan was to remove the battery and put the fob in the trunk - like hidden somewhere. But it occurs to me that simply wrapping the thing in aluminum foil would work. Has anybody tried this? The idea, of course, in...

    Autonomous Emergency Braking System (AEB)

    When I bought the 2015 Genesis, I expected it come with an AEB system. I don't have any messages on my HUD when I am driving. It appears AEB does not meet the specifications in chapter 5 of the owner manual. Does anyone can tell me if their AEB system works in normal driving mode?

    Autonomous Emergency Braking System (AEB) alarms

    I just now drove home in a real frog-strangler of a rainstorm. It was raining so hard that the wipers could barely keep up. A big gust of flying water hit the car and I felt the brakes grab for just an instant. Then, a red triangle lit up on the panel and a box appeared on the LCD announcing...

    Autonomous emergency braking

    We are taking our new Genesis out for its first long distance trip and I wanted to know about the Autonomous emergency braking (AEB) feature. If I am driving and someone suddenly cuts into my driving lane right in front of me, the AEB is supposed to slow the car. How well does this work? Of...

    Automatic Emergency Breaking Conditions

    I know the Automatic Emergency Breaking system will kick in if a vehicle in front of me makes a sudden stop. What if the object in front of me is a: Person Traffic sign Tree Will it also automatically stop me from crashing into it?

    Where to buy emergency triangle that fits

    Just wondering if anyone has purchased an emergency triangle that fits in the holder in the truck. If so, I'd love to know what brand/model fits. Someone has said the Audi triangle fits. Any other models?

    Emergency Braking

    I love the current Genesis commercial with the kid ogling the pretty girl. On my very first drive home yesterday with my new 3.8 Ultimate, a stake truck blew a transmission in front of me on an on-ramp and screeched to a sudden stop with smoke billowing from the rear tires. I was in cruise...

    Looking for Video of 2015 Emergency Flashers

    Hi. I saw this earlier but now I can not find it. It was a video of a 2015 Geny with the four way emergency flashers on. The view was from the front and from the back. The were sequential LED's and I am sure it was stock. Can a new owner give it a try and possibly Video the event. Thanks...

    Emergency brake and driving

    Hello, This morning I only had two hours sleep so i drove with my emergency brake on for a little past my mail box down the street until my car beeped alerting me I left it on. Does the genesis have a thing where it will turn off when driving or was the actual brake still being used? I...

    Had my first emergency maneuver on the highway with the GC

    This past weekend I was headed out to eat. The speed limit out here is 75 mph and the Holiday traffic was thick but still moving 75 - 80 mph. I was about four - five car lengths behind a big 4x4 SUV in the slow lane and had a line of cars behind me and a few coming up on my left to pass. We...
