VINFAST VF 8 2024 VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

The forward collision warning keeps faulting.  The software sends incorrect errors and shuts off some of the safety features when doing so.  The steering wheel is stuck in the 'exit' position, meaning it's retracted and in the highest position, making it difficult to maneuver.  Various alarms randomly sound for no reason.  The car has had multiple software updates and the problems remain persistent.
