EQS580 Phantom Brakding
I had this happen for the first time, while passing a semi at about 70mph with cruise on. Steering assist is off. Guaranteed will scare the s..t out of you when it happens.
This is one of the main reasons I got rid of my Tesla. I really hate to see this happen with this beautiful car.

I've had this happen a time or two when the car apparently senses the truck moving toward my lane. It is a little scary the first time. Only happens rarely, tho.

After discussing with the dealer I'm convinced it was the truck slightly drifting towards my lane. Furthermore this tolerance can be set:

Correct settings.
Despite that the EQS does seem to have more of an issue with big box trucks than any of my previous MB's which had none.
