| Description of the problem | I purchased a new 2018 nissan, the front end collision sensor is alarming and has ever since the car was new. I have taken it to two different dealers and they have referred me to nissan and say that i should wait for the recall. I think this is unacceptable as my car is not safe with the front end collision not working properly. Please help me fix this problem. As i am driving down the road, the sensor alarms and says it is not working when there is nothing in front of my vehicle. I had one dealer tell me it was picking up the sun...... Please help. |
