This almost got me into a serious accident, twice. Definitely would not recommend and I switched cars because of it. The last thing I need is buggy software with the capability of instantly changing the trajectory of my vehicle (slippery surfaces, cornering). A brand car as well (MB) so really, really disappointed, what should have been a safety feature actually was the opposite. Dealer said everything was fine so that was the end of that car, if 'fine' means that you have a couple of close calls in the first few thousand km on account of a feature that can't even be properly disabled without sabotaging the electronics then that's just too bad.
Now I drive a 27 year old car that has none of these 'features'. It does what I tell it to and when I tell it to, it doesn't phone home, and has no touch screen, but old fashioned buttons.
If the government wants to immediately improve car safety they should outlaw touchscreens instead.
