I've also had mixed results. My 2018 Prius is flawless, not a single false brake in nearly seven years. We recently purchased a Tesla (I know, I know, long story) and we had to turn the braking sensitivity so far down that the feature is now basically useless.

He truly is an idiot. I wish he'd just step down from Tesla. The company has some great ideas, but instead of making them better, he's making everything worse.

Edit: some of the newer cars are being reequipped with radar but it's not being actively utilized because of idiocy.
