| Description of the problem | We have had 2 parking lot fender benders within 3 months due to the fact that nissan's rear view monitoring system's use of a backup camera is so complicated to use and its blind spot monitoring does not function under 20 miles per hour speed that i don't think they should have been approved as a feature on this car. Additionally, the interior back seat headrests block all windows that would normally be used for visual searching. As a buyer, i was not warned that the system has a very minimal use. It took two accidents before i found its limitations buried in the manual. The system is very dangerous since marketing implies that it protects from backing up when it does not. In the manual small print it lists so nine times when it will not work. Compared to other cars such as lexus, this nissan 'safety' feature is actually a danger to any driver. |
