Within the last week or so, my 2022 M3LR Cruise Control started acting like AutoPilot?
In the past, Cruise Control would set the speed and stick to it like any other car, stay at that speed regardless of all else, until I braked or turned it off.
Now, I have been in perfectly clear dry weather by myself and cruise slowed me down unexpectedly from 49mph to 24mph on a straight flat road. I saw a warning that the passenger pillar camera was (foggy?).
Then, another time cruising at 63mph in a 55 on a clear day, a car in the far ahead distance was turning left. M3LR started freaking out and basically slammed on the brakes to a great degree. I was still at least 8+ car lengths back.
Again, driving up a slight grade (33mph) at dusk and an oncoming vehicle with headlights on, came over the crest into view and the car freaked with all bells and whistles and hard breaking.
I am NOT double-downing the stalk into AutoPilot by mistake, the blue steering wheel is NOT lit up.
I don't understand this mysterious change and why Cruise Control is mysteriously more automated similar to AutoPilot. It has converted Cruise Control to a 'not safe to use' option. I have tried it under varying conditions hoping it to be a 'one off' but the bizarre behaviour has been consistent?
Anyone else?
