Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report

Forward collision warning (FCW) and Intelligent Forward Collision Warning lights turn on randomly with no obstruction present, disabling cruise control.
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) or Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) systems activate or show a fault warning for an obstruction that is not actually there, sometimes disengaging cruise control until the vehicle is restarted.
Distance/radar sensor reports 'front radar unavailable due to obstruction,' causing sudden unexpected braking or deceleration while driving, including while passing another vehicle.
Rearview camera image goes black when reversing.
AEB warning light stays on after a dealer visit, with owners reporting a related ABS actuator part on backorder.
FCW system disables itself within a short distance of driving and only resets after the vehicle is shut off and restarted.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Nissan Altima, Armada, Frontier, Kicks, Leaf, Maxima, Murano, NV, NV200, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, Titan, Titan Diesel, Versa Note and Versa Sedan vehicles, as well as Infiniti Q50, Q60, QX30 and QX80 vehicles. Additionally included are 2019 Nissan GT-R and Taxi and Infiniti QX50, QX60, Q70, Q70L vehicles. The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."
Risk: The lack of an image in the back-up camera display increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners in phases, having dealers update the back-up camera settings software, free of charge. The recall began November 11, 2019 and all affected VINs should be activated. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or INFINITI customer service at 1-800-662-6200.
