Altima 4-cyl

  • 5,500 miles
I am having an issue while driving that my car is saying my front sensor in blocked causing my car to randomly automatic break while no other cars are around me. I took my car to Nissan in cherry hill, NJ where I bought the car eight months ago. They told me that the sensor was bent and my car was hit or in an accident. Let me specify that I was not in an accident, and my car was not hit by another car. There are no marks on the front of my car that would give them reason to say my car was in an accident. I take my car to get serviced at a non- Nissan dealership. Nissan of cherry hill is trying to blame that company for the "damage" that never happened.

Altima

Back in the July I got into a rear end collision, the emergency braking should have kicked in but it did not. Since then, the emergency braking has applied multiple times in the open by itself with no cars ahead or in view. It makes me very nervous to drive this. It has happened both on city streets and the highway. I tried telling the Nissan dealership and they have no knowledge and are not willing to work with me for failure and damages.
