so i come back from new york after a week... then i get to my car at the airport.... i drive and my parking sensor is going off in the front like its detecting something with 1 red bar.. this even happens when im driving on the street with no one in front of me ...

it randomly goes off to the red bar here and there... does anyone know what the problem and fix is? note that i always drive with the parking sensors on.. is that what is messing it up ?

Try to see which sensor it is and clean it, if that doesnt help you're sensor is bad you are gonna need to change it.

its the sensor that detects the front... if i need to replace it do i just replace that front sensor?and any recommended way on cleaning it?

Yeah sometimes its just some dirt/wax in there. Clean it off real good with a toothbrush.

there must be something in the way of the sensor blocking it wash your car and look around the four spot where they are located at.

it's weird. i had the same exact problem a few weeks ago. i just turned it off for about 3 or 4 days and then turned it back and the problem went away

I hope mine goes away because its really annoying.... Going to clean it today when it gets cooler... It's so damn hot here in the south..

i had a similar problem...what I did was the driver side front middle was beeping all the damn time, I took the sensor out [you have to take part of the bumper off..20mins] and swapped it with the passenger side middle. It hasn't beep since, could of been a weird connection, but while it was out of the car, I had an opportunity to clear off some of the gunk on the sensors

haha just letting you know the problem came back today. i noticed it happens when the car's been sitting in the sun for a while. hopefully it goes away again after a few days.

This also happens to me. Only during winter time when the weather is very cold. Other than that it works flawlessly.
