I was a safe distance from the vehicle in front of me.  I also started to brake, but allowed the gap between us to close somewhat due to a vehicle following closely behind me.  The Honda’s emergency braking system suddenly took over with MAXIMUM braking, causing items in my vehicle to fly around AND the vehicle behind me to nearly rear end me.  I had NO control over the braking.  My wife screamed at me, thinking that I had slammed my foot on the brakes, but it was beyond my control.  I’ve asked my Honda dealer if the system can be adjusted but I was given no help.  I understand the emergency braking system’s intended purpose, but the manner that this system has engaged (3 times) is unsafe.  It’s not like I wasn’t paying attention, I was, and I was already braking.  It’s actually scary the way it locked up.  Yes, I know that the brakes didn’t actually lock up, they are antilock brakes, but it was like I was standing on the brake pedal.  Have there been similar complaints about this?     * The date below, 10/26/2021, is approximately the first time that this happened.  It happened two additional times.  It pretty scary when it happens.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"CR-V","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
