CONTINUALLY GETTING ERROR MESSAGE SAYING "UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION". TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE AFTER CLEARING THE CODE. DROVE AWAY FROM DEALER AND IT DID IT AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK AND THEY NOW SAY NISSAN IS "ENGINEERING" THE PROBLEM AND DON'T RECOMMEND A FIX. TOOK IT ON THE HIGHWAY AND WAS PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE AT 75MPH WHEN IT WENT OFF AND IT DISABLED MY CRUISE CONTROL. THAT WAS QUITE STARTLING AND IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE AND FILED A CASE. THEY DON'T SEEM TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, YET I SEE OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WHEN I CHECK FORUMS ON THE INTERNET.

MY VEHICLE HAD A WARNING LIGHT COME ON STATING "FRONT COLLISION AVOIDANCE UNAVAILABLE". IT WOULD SHUT OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. TOOK IT BACK IN SEVERAL WEEKS LATER DEMANDING THEY FIX THE PROBLEM. TOOK A TEST DRIVE WITH THE TECHNICIAN. PROBLEM DID NOT REOCCUR. I GOT OUT. THE TECHNICIAN STARTED THE CAR TO PULL IT IN THE SHOP AND THE WARNING CAME ON. THEY TRACED THE PROBLEM TO A SENSOR. THE SENSOR IS NOT AVAILABLE AND IS ON BACKORDER. IN THE MEAN TIME THE CRUISE DOES NOT OPERATE AND THE FRONT COLLISION AVOIDANCE DOES NOT WORK (WAITING 5 WEEKS NOW). CANNOT DEPEND UPON THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE EVEN THOUGH THEY ADVERTISE IT.

THE CAMERA ON THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS DAMAGED BY SOMETHING OFF THE ROAD CRACKING THE LENSES AND, AS A RESULT, CAUSING MY CRUISE CONTROL NOT TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AS WELL. I COULD NOT USE MY DRIVING SAFETY CONTROLS THAT CONTROLLED DISTANCES BETWEEN VEHICLES ALSO. THIS WAS A POOR DESIGN FLAW AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD OF 3 YEAR/36000 MILES. WE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE(S) FIXED BUT THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN. WE WILL PROBABLY NOT BUY ANOTHER NISSAN PRODUCT AGAIN EVEN THOUGH THIS IS OUR SIXTH CONSECUTIVE PURCHASE FROM NISSAN.
