What owners wrote

Purchased nissan altima s 2018 , the aeb "automatic emergency breaking " does not function at any time, the computer will not establish a code for it not working either. It's either a faulty computer not establishing a code or the the aeb is faulty. Will not attempt to stop for a pedestrian crossing in the cross walks, will not apply more breaking pressure if I'm not applying enough. Have talked dealership in shelby, nc.
