As the vehicle approached the intersection and began the maneuver, it unexpectedly continued straight instead of completing the right turn. This caused the vehicle to enter the intersection in front of other vehicles that were stopped at another traffic light. I had to intervene to ensure safety. There was no clear reason for the incorrect maneuver, and the system behavior was unexpected and potentially dangerous. Additional Information: •Weather conditions: ___good weather _clear__ •Traffic conditions: ___lot of traffic people getting off work___ •Driver intervention: Yes / No (explain briefly)yes heading straight to cars if I had not made a quick maneuver and turn the steering wheel. I would have crash hitting at least one or two cars. •Dashcam footage available: Yes / No NO I am submitting this report so the event can be reviewed for possible software or safety issues with the driver-assistance system. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
