| Description of the problem | The aeb system is malfunctioning. On multiple occassions the car suddenly breaks eventhough there is nothing in front of the car. It has only happened to me while on the highway - generally the roads are clear. On one of the multiple occassions, clearing the radar of bug splatter solved the problem. On all the other occassions, there was no obstruction to the radar. The brakes come on, the aeb light on the console comes on, a warning flashes, and then the car moves on as if nothing happened. After doing this several times over several miles, the aeb light comes on and it desplays an error message about the front radar is not working and the cruise is disabled. On one of the occassions a large pickup truck towing a trailer was right behind me when the car suddenly put on the brakes. Fortunately, he was able to stop before hitting my car. When i had the car serviced at the dealer, i told the service rep about the issue. He indicated that a shadow or something like a leaf blown across the radar can cause it to react. I did not notice any occrence of such. I am extremely concerned that someone following to close will end up ramming me in the rear end. After doing an internet search, i have found multiple occurences of this problem and that nissan has sent out several technical bulletins about the problem. As noted above, there have been multiple events of this type. It typically happens on the highway. |
