“Collision Prevention Inoperative” - Car loses accelerator
I have been getting the attached warning message while driving the last 2 days. This was also an issue a month ago but went away after 2-3 days and then didn’t occur again until yesterday.

After I do pull over though, I simply have to shut off the car for 15 seconds and turn it back on and can start driving again like normal and the message doesn’t come back for another 20 minutes. At that point, I have to repeat these steps.
