Consumer Description

MOST NOTABLY, WHEN I'M USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, MY CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGES AND MY CAR ALERTS ME THAT THE FEB [FORWARD EMERGENCY BRAKING] - AKA - AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING - IS "UNAVAILABLE" DUE TO "FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION" THIS HAPPENS AT VERY RANDOM TIMES, AT LEAST EVERY OTHER DAY, DURING NORMAL HIGHWAY AND CITY DRIVING. IT IS ALWAYS A CLEAR DAY, NEVER A DROP OF RAIN, NOT EVEN RUNNING OVER A RANDOM BUMP IN THE ROAD OR A POTHOLE. THEN RANDOMLY, ANYWHERE BETWEEN WHAT FEELS LIKE 5 - 30 MINUTES AFTER INITIAL ALERT, THE WARNING CLEARS ITSELF. I PURCHASED THE CAR USED IN JULY 2020 AND THIS HAS BEEN A CONSTANT ANNOYANCE EVER SINCE. I'M AWARE THAT OTHER NISSAN MODELS AROUND THE SAME YEAR (2017) HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE SENSOR.
