Nissan Murano collision sensor shuts off while driving, deactivating cruise control for 10 minutes on Nissan Murano

Some Nissan Murano owners report experiencing issues with the collision sensor shutting off while driving, which can deactivate the cruise control for about 10 minutes. This problem is often accompanied by warning messages such as "unavailable front radar obstruction" and the illumination of the forward collision warning lamp on the dashboard. Additionally, some drivers have noted the message "Forward driving aids disabled. Front sensor blocked," which requires the system to be reset by turning off the engine and restarting the vehicle. Common causes for the collision sensor shutting off include sensor blockages or obstructions, which may trigger the system to go offline after some distance. While regular car washes and keeping the sensor clean can help, persistent issues may necessitate further investigation or maintenance. It's also important to highlight that the Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) system may become unavailable outside of near collisions, requiring a reset by turning the car off and on again. Moreover, the I-FCW system is designed to warn drivers of potential collisions but does not actively prevent them, underscoring the need for drivers to remain vigilant and maintain control of their vehicle at all times.
