Precautions For Predictive Forward Collision Warning

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Nissan Murano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Predictive Forward Collision Warning system is designed to warn the driver before a collision, but will not avoid a collision. It is the driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
The radar sensor does not detect the following objects:
- Pedestrians, animals, or obstacles in the roadway.
- Oncoming vehicles.
- Crossing vehicles.
The Predictive Forward Collision Warning system does not function when a vehicle ahead is a narrow vehicle, such as a motorcycle.
The radar sensor may not detect a second vehicle ahead in the following conditions:
- Snow or heavy rain.
- Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering the radar sensor.
- Interference by other radar sources.
- Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles is splashed.
- Driving in a tunnel.
The radar sensor may not detect a second vehicle when the vehicle ahead is being towed.
When the distance to the vehicle ahead is too close, the beam of the radar sensor is obstructed.
The radar sensor may not detect a second vehicle when driving on a steep downhill slope or on roads with sharp curves.
Excessive noise will interfere with the warning tone sound, and it may not be heard.
