I have a 2020 Honda Civic sans ultrasonic sensors but with a front camera for collision avoidance, and I can count on two hands the number of phantom breaking events I've had in two years. All it takes is a little rain and the sun at the right angle for the system to be fooled into thinking a wall lies dead ahead.

I consider myself lucky that each time there was no one behind me.

While the car gives me the option to turn of the feature, I leave it on because if I get into an accident with it off I am sure the insurance companies would have more leverage to deny my claims and find me at fault.
