Issue

In the collision damage mitigation brake system, the control software for the control unit is incorrect, causing the brake activation duration to be longer than necessary when a pedestrian with collision potential is detected ahead. This may induce unintended hard braking by the driver in response to the unnecessary braking input.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, reprogram the collision damage mitigation brake system control unit software to the corrected specification.
