## Narrative
My 2017 CRV Touring was working fine.  I had a fender bender accident and they replaced the Collision Mitigation Braking System with a new Honda part.  After the repair and I have the car in cruise control, it will suddenly brake and decelerate when there is nothing in front of me.  This is very dangerous when you're going 65 mph on a highway.  It is at the Honda Short Pump dealership.  They have had it for 4 working days and can't find the problem.  I know there was a class action lawsuit and Honda won, but surely this is a very serious problem they should fix.
