Hello everyone! I’ve been suffering through a recurring issue with my 2014 Fusion Hybrid Titanium. Regardless of weather conditions, after 5-10 minutes of driving, the “Collision Sensor Not Available. Sensor Blocked. See Manual” warning pops up. It doesn’t matter if it’s cloudy, sunny, rainy, foggy, blisteringly hot, or frigidly cold; the warning comes on slightly after I start driving. Naturally, this disables the adaptive cruise control, which isn’t a problem in inclement weather, but is quite frustrating on longer trips on the interstate. I’ve cleaned off the front grille countless times. There’s no dirt, mud, grime, or mountains of dead bugs on the grille. I saw that in a similar thread that a similar issue in Explorers was possibly the result of a faulty bracket causing a misalignment of the radar. Has this been observed in Fusions? Is there a straightforward way to access the radar assembly? If it’s not the bracket, what are some other possible culprits? Electrical short? Faulty sensor? The car has had a couple run inside with electrical gremlins relating to the backup camera and the center console media outlets, so I wouldn’t be overly surprised if the gremlins had friends. Any advice, wisdom, or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!
