I've had my 2020 Larmie 1500 for 5 years and for the most part I've been very satisfied with it. However, over the last couple of months I've had 4 or 5 instances where the truck will decide to brake on it's own - even at highway speeds. I was lucky no one rearended me.

Has anyone else had this problem or know of a solution?

Only when using the intelligent cruise control or what ever they call it. It will brake automatically if you get to close to the car in front. But you probably know that.

Otherwise known as "Adaptive Cruise Control" lol

Thanks but I don't think it was the ACC. I wasn't using it.

I assume none were valid accident avoidance incidents with another vehicle close in front of you. But it sounds like your sensors may be accidentally triggering it somehow.
