This happened to me yesterday, driving with the adaptive cruise on and in traffic. The sensor was "lost". The Ex immediately and automatically went into a deceleration mode, collision warning light and chimes went off (although no collision was even close), and a sensor failure warning was displayed. I immediately went to the accelerator due to traffic behind me. Attempts to reset the cruise control resulted in redisplay of the sensor warning. Finally turned the cruise off and back on and all was fine. Did not have to restart the vehicle. Other than waking my wife up from her nap, and likely choice comments from people behind me, no harm/no foul. Actually good to know how a sensor communication failure responds.
