If your seeing it too often it usually means your tailgating. It’s the collision assist, plenty of info in manual. Be safe!

I've had that come on and audibly buzz at me when just driving down the road with no one around. At least it didn't slam on the brakes on me.... thinking software, sensor, dirt, something making it malfunction.

like you said, luckily the brakes didn't activate on their own.
