Purchased 2018 nissan morano sl suv on 12/14/2019. driving from dealer on 4 lane highway, approx. 3 mi., dashboard displayed 'unavailable front radar obstruction'. it has randomly displayed this ever since. nissan dealer stated they have been 'desensitizing' the radar as a remedy but denied having any previous knowledge of this defect.
When driving in cruise control, the vehicle will suddenly flash a signal stating "front radar obstruction, unavailable" which disengages the braking system while driving in cruise control, . this almost caused a major accident on the highway because the radar failed to alert and automaticall slow car down. this also causes a hazard when driving on regular streets as all of a sudden the signal flashes inexplicably and unpredictably which causes a distraction while driving.
While driving along approximately 5 mph along a city street approaching a traffic light ready to stop, i heard this really loud noise sounding like a gunshot or similar loud noise. the sunroof was closed, however, it exploded the front sliding glass of the sunroof, and i was very surprised. at first i had no idea what h ad taken place, i then heard loud air noises coming in the car. i checked to make sure all the doors and windows were closed tightly. i decided to strop and check the outside of the vehicle, and noticed the large hole in the sunroof. i had drive home about 35 miles with the broken glass sliding around in the shade between the sunroof and the car. i had no idea how this could have happened. the next day i took it to the body shop, and they stated that i shouldn't be driving it like this because it would be very dangerous if the broken glass would suddenly break through the shade, and the glass would fall directly into the auto and on me and the passenger. i don't have any pictures at this time,,however the body shop has.
The censor is defective on my vehicle. the censor has been replaced twice.i purchased this vehicle new and now i feel very unsafe driving it because the censor defectiveness can cause the vehicle to stop in traffic.
Frontal collision warning system continuously turns off while driving car. when this happens it also causes the cruse control to turn off. when traveling at highway speeds this causes the vehicle to rapidly slow down on the highway without the brake lights coming on. this potentially could cause a chain reaction accident. the problem occurs every time the car is driven . nissan knows of the problem but does not have a fix for it. they continue to say the problem is under engineering review. the problem has been on nissan vehicles for at least two years and nissan continues to produce vehicles that they know has a safety problem.
Emergency breaking system keeps flashing a warning.front radar unavailable due to obstruction
Each time the vehicle is driven a warning pops up indicating "unavailable front radar obstruction". happens every time the vehicle is driven.
The rear spoiler of this vehicle was disconnected (torn apart) from the main body while i was driving in a high way with my new-born baby. person in an auto-shop told me this car was already bad-made and it was already loosely connected. nissan didn't take my case seriously.
I was driving in the fast lane on the freeway, and for no apparent reason, the car shut down, then immediately started up again. i was fearful that i was going to get hit from behind, so immediately went to the slow lane. i drove the car to and from my destination with no further incident, but fear it might happen again.
Current mileage is 9,900. three times now while driving on the highway, the a/c stops blowing through the air vents in the cabin, even though the compressor is still audible in the dash. three times i have visited the dealer for service and have been sent home three times saying they cannot duplicate the issue. of course they can't because this in an intermittent problem that happens after an hour of driving on the highway. when the service tech finally gets to the car to begin the diagnosis, the car is cold and works fine. i filed a complaint with nissan corporate and they said the same, they could not authorize a repair until a dealer could duplicate the problem and document it. i even took a video with my phone of the issue live when it happened on the highway while my wife was driving. in the video, you can see the air is not blowing a piece of paper in front of the vent but the a/c is set to max and turned on full blast.
