If they are this intrusive I'm definitely a proponent of adjustments for sensitivity and an off switch!
I can only speak for my wife's vehicle (Subaru Outback). To my knowledge the auto-braking can not be adjusted or turned off. Some of the other "smart" features can be toggled off/on, but I can't think of any off-hand that can be adjusted.

To be fair, I like some of them, particularly the "auto-adjust" cruise control (or whatever it is called). But I despise the lane-departure warnings and auto-correct. I do see the value of the auto-braking in theory, but it needs to be fine-tuned (at least from the version I have driven) for me to be completely sold.
