Warnings problem #2

I when to a car wash facility and the ics sensor when crazy!!! (flashing the warning light). Now my car giving me a ics malfunction. The automatic braking don't work and the parking assistance neither. I believe this is a manufacturing problem due same car model and year experience the same but it has different VIN so there is not a recall for my VIN.
