I keep getting a warning flashes on the dashboard to indicate the problem: 'front radar unavailable due to obstruction.' the sensor frequently deactivate itself, disabling cruise control and the emergency braking system. The symbol looks like a crash is going to happen. It has happened while in motion and no other cars are around, and while other cars are around and on city streets and highways.
2018 Nissan Pathfinder brakes complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 21 of 21, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I was in the process of turning on a back road, there was a guardrail to my left and and a truck with a trailer turning in front of me on my right. My sensors must have thought they were too close because my car locked up and I could not turn causing me to hit the guardrail.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 nissan pathfinder. While driving various speeds, the emergency braking system engaged intermittently and the anti-lock brake warning indicator illuminated. The contact released the accelerator pedal and had to shift into park in order for the vehicle to resume normal operation. The vehicle was taken to united nissan (3025 e, nv-589, las vegas, nv 89104, (702) 832-5480) where the ECM, ivp, and anti-lock brakes were reprogrammed; however, the failure recurred multiple times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer over five times, but the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and offered a loaner vehicle. A case number was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 30,435.
Pathfinder forward collision warning when driving on bridge or any road sign anything above the road I am getting warning, I complained so many time but no changes and issue still exist, it's keep happening at least twice a week video attached as sample when crossing bridge after keep getting warning it went off mode
Purchased the car in january 2019 complete hood latch system has had to be replaced in february. That was major problem one. The hood wouldn't close. Problem 2. Every time I drive the car I get an alert that unavailable front radar obstruction. As if something is blocking the sensor. It will be a clear day nothing in my way and this pops up. I have also had the car break for no reason due to this!!!!! Nissan is aware of the situation and I was told the new sensor is on backorder. Extreme safety issue! Hoping for a buy back so I can get out of this nightmare of a car. Also the car will always be in motion when this happens. I have also had it where the car beeps as if I am going to hit the car in front of me and there is no car in front of me!
Front collision sensor not working light illuminated breaking system light illuminated warning not working vehicle in motion on highway. Happens every time I drive
Anti collision light keeps coming on and beeping intermittently and vehicle seems to jerk when problem occurs. There is no other vehicle around me. And anti collision light stays on until vehicles is turned off then on again problem has occurred 3 times in 1 weak .driving freeway 2 times 1 city driving straight ahead. And when vehicles jerks afraid it just wants to just stop in motion were I'm at but doesn't.
The front radar safety feature deactivates and the amber front collision warning light comes on. The speed control feature is disabled when the radar is not active. When the system finally kicks in the speed control suddenly accelerates without warning. The sudden on/off scenario is dangerous and what was supposed to be a safety feature is now actually a hazard. A car should not unexpectedly accelerate to the speed control limit 10-15 minutes after it was set.
Faulty radar on my nissan pathfinder is compromising my emergency braking system. It frequently deactivates itself thereby disabling my cruise control and the emergency braking system. A warning flashes on the dashboard to indicate the problem: front radar unavailable. In my view the emergency braking system is unreliable. A recall and a fix should be ordered.
Front radar modular intermittently unavailable. Article found stating nissan was working on a fix, is it available yet? 2 dealership service departments and an agent at nissan USA knew nothing about it. While driving with the intelligent cruise control on, suddenly it shuts off and a message on screen states, unavailable front radar obstruction. 2-15 minutes later it allows start up again. This seems to be totally random. Happened numerous times on a 2500 mile trip.
The forward collision braking system (used for automatic emergency braking) intermittently disables on it's own every time that I drive. This issue was reported to the dealership and nissan on 11/5/2018 however is pending a resolution. This issue has existed since I purchased the vehicle new on 10/25/18.
