Front bumber sensor goes off a lot

Sep 22, 2007 1 Replies

On the passenger side of the front bumper the radar or proximity sensor has decided to go off a lot. It allmost seems like it is picking up WiFi signals in the downtown and some sort of signals at traffic lights. This has just started within the last couple of weeks, and does not happen with any of the other sensor locations. I have had to turn the volume down. And it makes using the map thingy in town useless because it blanks out the map when the sensor goes off! Also it seems like the temp indicator for the outside temp may be running higher than it has, but this quesiton is not yet decided. The 20,000 mile thing is coming up shortly so I will have it fixed then.

That should be covered under warranty. Take it back in and have them fix it for FREE. If they can't fix it right away it should be documented in the records to make free after-warranty repairs easier.

If like anything else, the sensor system is made by Fujitsu-Ten. Not the top of the line automobile electronics maker.
