    The front radar is faulty and is causing issues with the front emergency braking (feb). There is a notification that says "feb unavailable: front radar obstruction". This is causing a regular distraction to the driver and also poses in a risk that the vehicle may automatically brake unexpectedly or not brake in an emergency situation.

    Front collision sensor turns on even without any cars in front. The dealer said sometimes the rain affects the sensor but it still turns on even when it's not raining. Once it's the warning light is on, it never turns off. I'm concerned for my safety especially when the emergency brakes depends on the sensor. This happens whenever i drive on a city street. I've had this car since 12/8/19.

    The front electronic braking system feb intermittently goes out saying "front radar obstruction" every time i drive the car. If the car is turned off then back on it works normally but will happen again within an hour or so every time it's driven, no exceptions.

    The front sensor on my 2018 nissan altima malfunctions, stating that there's a front radar obstruction at times. Other times, it falsely detects a vehicle too close in front of me when there's nothing actually in front of me on streets and on the freeway. It recently engaged the brakes while i was on a street when it falsely detected another vehicle too close in front of me. Luckily, no accident resulted.

    Car would not brake and hit a pole. The vehicle is supposed to have emergency brakes, but did not work. Often would get a message across my dashboard saying it was unavailable.
