Same here, working great and use it every time.

BTW I do get the false collision panic brake when I pass by certain tanker trucks which sucks. Anyone know if Ford found a fix for that yet?

I seem to remember a TSB/SSM for that where guys reported it helped but still wasn't 100% perfect.

I have 5 months with mine and absolutely love it. Best modification I've done to any vehicle I've ever owned. I will never own a vehicle without an automated cruise control ever again!

After reading this, I did some research on this "phantom braking" issue, and the threads I discovered chalked it up to two different issues:

1. Radar sensor units that were not aligned properly
2. Faulty CCM firmware that was flashed as part of a recall on 2015's.

Of those of you that have already installed with latest parts (specifically, the -D version of the radar) and careful sensor alignment and calibration with FORScan, how many have experienced phantom braking? If so, were you towing or carrying a heavy load in the bed?

I have experienced zero problems. Works flawlessly.

I have the latest sensor and it's perfectly aligned. I wondered too if those having issues had leveled their trucks and not re-aligned the sensor afterwards -- or if that was perhaps compounding whatever older firmware issue there was.

No issues here, passed plenty of reflective trucks.

No issues as of yet. Happy with the addition.

I've taken the first step to see if ACC Stop & Go will be possible on a 2015-2017 truck and I've purchased a new 2018 8" Instrument Cluster. If I can get this cluster working without errors in my '16 I'll then proceed to upgrading the firmware in my CCM, SODL/SODR, IPMA, ABS as needed so stay tuned....
