That's a good question. I know the low speed slams on the brakes when the truck thinks you are going to hit something. Try getting it up to like 50 mph and aim for a parked car or something. Let us know what it does.
Or I guess the responsible thing to do would be to read the owners manual. But you have to admit option A would lend a lot more excitement to your day!
Is it possibly picking up shadows from an overpass or possibly trees? Like I said previously my truck doesnt have the collision warning but the park sensor are sensitive enough to pick up shadow's. Just a thoughtMine definitely does (without Auto Cruise on) and it's scary.
There's a certain spot on my way to work where it activates 2-3 times in less than a 1/4 mile with NOTHING in front of me. I had to disable the system as the dealer cannot duplicate the problem. I still get the warning on the dash and loud beeping, but atleast she does not slam the brakes for no reason.
Based on the use of the word "may", it looks like it's possible that it could react to shadows.Is it possibly picking up shadows from an overpass or possibly trees?

FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such as overhead objects, ground reflections, objects not in the path of the vehicle, stationary objects that are far away, oncoming traffic, or leading vehicles with the same or higher rate of speed.
You know what they say: "The worst drivers never miss a turn."Mine fully activated once and saved me from rear ending someone who almost missed their turn on a two lane SR. Just glad there was nobody behind me.

Mine picks up exhaust on a cold day.I know my park sensors pick up shadows
So far mine hasn't stopped for anything that wasn't legit. It has locked up the brakes (breaks) when my tailgate was down, but I'd rather have it do that than letting me smash my bumper into a pole I can't see.I know my park sensors pick up shadows
I had the same problem crossing over the MLK bridge pictured below at about 40Mph. I initially thought it was because of the small incline until I saw your comment. I bet the shadows played a factor for me also.Highly possible. It's when I'm going over the Commodore Barry Bridge, day / night (massive street lights) and in either direction it happens.
It's been pretty good everywhere else, it's just on that bridge it goes nuts. Which is unfortunate as I have to take that bridge to goto work. So I had to disable the system and make sure I'm not using the AutoCruise when I'm going over it.
My 2019 has now activated the brakes (HARD!) three different times in the past four months. It has done it at the exact same place on my drive home from work. Its when I am stopped under a bridge waiting for traffic in front of me to move. When it moves and I start to move the FCW kicks in and slams the brakes on. Today I almost got rear ended. So I have now set it to warning only, which completely sucks because I want the active braking as it could save me from an accident. However I have to disable the braking because it is actively trying to get me into an accident.Mine definitely does (without Auto Cruise on) and it's scary.

I still get the warning on the dash and loud beeping, but at least she does not slam the brakes for no reason.
