My 2022 Mercedes GLE 350 With distronic adaptive cruise control accelerates with the cruise control disabled. It's happened about a dozen times since I purchased the vehicle in September of 2022. All acceleration issues occurred at low speed while turning. Right after I release the brake while turning my car accelerates like the distronic cruise control is engaged eventhough I just braked and it's disengaged. I have to quickly hit the brakes to disengage the accelration.

While driving with Active Cruise Control (Distronic) and with Lane Keep Assist off and Active Lane Change Assist off, the car would forcefully and suddenly try and steer me back into my lane while performing a lane change while using the blinker. It happens randomly and abruptly. Most lane changes occur without issue and there are no obstructions or other warnings that occur during these incidences.
