THE VEHICLE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM/CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT OPERATE WHEN A WARNING MESSAGE UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION WAS DISPLAYED. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WHEN THE MESSAGE OCCURS, THE BRAKES CAN STOP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

THE COLLISION DETECTION RADAR SYSTEM THAT CONTROLS THE AUTOMATED BRAKING SYSTEM AND ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL KEEPS FAILING. THE RADAR SENSOR HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED ONCE AND NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING. *TR

LEFT SIDE RADIATOR COOLING FAN ON MY 2018 PATHFINDER IS FAILING AFTER ONLY 26,000 MILES. OBVIOUSLY A BIG PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES.

THE FRONT SENSOR KEEP SHOWING THE 'FRONT SENSOR UNAVAILABLE' FOLLOWED BY THE CRASH ICON AT ALL TIMES OF THE DAY, AND ALL SPEEDS INCLUDING IN THE STOPPED POSITION. THE SENSOR GOES OUT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES NEAR THE CAR

THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING. AT LOW RPMS THERE IS A NOTICEABLE METALLIC SOUND AND LOSS OF POWER, ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AT LEAST THREE TIMES WITHOUT THEM FINDING A SOLUTION OR BEING ABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. INSTEAD I'M BEING TOLD THAT THE HEAT SHIELD IS THE ISSUE AND THAT IT HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OFF EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.

I KEEP GETTING A WARNING FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD TO INDICATE THE PROBLEM: 'FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE DUE TO OBSTRUCTION.' THE SENSOR FREQUENTLY DEACTIVATE ITSELF, DISABLING CRUISE CONTROL AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. THE SYMBOL LOOKS LIKE A CRASH IS GOING TO HAPPEN. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE IN MOTION AND NO OTHER CARS ARE AROUND, AND WHILE OTHER CARS ARE AROUND AND ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS.

I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF TURNING ON A BACK ROAD, THERE WAS A GUARDRAIL TO MY LEFT AND AND A TRUCK WITH A TRAILER TURNING IN FRONT OF ME ON MY RIGHT. MY SENSORS MUST HAVE THOUGHT THEY WERE TOO CLOSE BECAUSE MY CAR LOCKED UP AND I COULD NOT TURN CAUSING ME TO HIT THE GUARDRAIL.
