After returning on 12/12/20 a Sentra purchased on 12/8/20 - I swapped out with another Sentra. Reason for return - aeb pedestrian light kept going on every morning despite varying weather conditions (warm vs. Cold). Received this car (gun metallic color) and on 12/13/20 - same thing happened! will be contacting the service department tomorrow to request a replacement sensor. Could it be a faulty batch of cars at this dealership?.
Bought this vehicle on 12/8/20; the next day, the aeb light for pedestrian kept flashing in the morning. Eventually went off. Happened every day thereafter - despite varying weather conditions; brought back to dealer on 12/12 to service department and was told it was a faulty sensor, that it did not recognize my vehicle was no longer in park. Requested to swap with new vehicle - which I did. Same thing happened on new one!!!.
