“The autopilot computer failed. This has rendered all safety systems and camera on the vehicle inactive, including the rear view camera, all forward and side cameras so no active safety systems are functioning. This includes crash avoidance, lane keeping, blind spot warning, cruise control, and rear camera during reverse, the vehicle is nearly impossible to reverse as the view is terrible with no cameras.”
