| Description of the problem | Sunday january 28, 2018 a second totally unnecessary deployment again occurred, this time at @ 8:43 am. I was again on the southbound major deegan expressway, having entered south of yonkers avenue, but this time in the right hand lane on a slight downhill curve to the left, past mclean avenue overpass, speed 52 mph with the cruise control engaged, when the forward emergency brake system automatically deployed, for about 2 to 3 seconds. Again, there was no car immediately in front of me; no debris on the roadway; nothing that would alert the sensor. After emailing the yorktown nissan new car dealer last week january. 25th after the first such incident, several hours later i had received no response. I then called the dealer and was directed to the service department. The receptionist would not put me through to the service manager, but instead allegedly spoke with a service dept. Person, and repliedy to me that "most likely there is dirt covering the sensor". I inquired where the sensor is, and what it looked like. She replied "the sensor looks like a little camera and it's either in your grill or in your bumper". I examined the sensor but did not detect any piece of dirt or anything covering the sensor. I'm very worried about this unexplained emergency deployment of the forward braking system, and would appreciate your response on this matter, and who to contact to see if other nissan owners have similar experiences, and try to identify if there is any defect in the system. I am extremely worried about being rear-ended by another car when the system, for no reason, deploys the emergency braking |
