Wednesday, Ford said it was recalling 37,000 F-150 pickups from the 2015 model year in the U.S. and Canada to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control system that automatically brakes the trucks to avoid a crash.
The company said that when passing a large truck, the radar could incorrectly determine that it's in the F-150's travel lane when it is not. The system could apply the brakes until it senses that the truck is no longer in the way.
Ford says it has a report of one crash caused by the problem but no injuries. Dealers will update software to fix the problem.

That sucks. That adaptive cruise control is pretty awesome, between that and the lane keeping assist, no need to pay any attention while driving anymore. PS, the lane keeping assist gets really pissed off when you take both hands off the wheel.
