On 9/22/2022, another vehicle pulled out in front of me and caused a front-end collision. The front end of my vehicle was damaged where the front-end cap and air dam (fog lights) were ripped off exposing the radiator and front-end sensors. Now my cruise control is not functioning, and the following interior warning lights are listed above in the subject line. None of these issues occurred prior to the accident. I am trying to get the insurance companies to have this inspected and to be repaired or calibrated back to normal, but these virtual inspectors are not including this as part of the estimates. Wouldn't any of you specialists agree that this accident would pose the problems of these system failures and make it unsafe to drive until they are either replaced and/or calibrated? Please give me your honest opinions. I also requested them to have my radiator inspected for any leaks and it appears by the payment they are offering me that it is not going to be looked at either. I want to fight this and make my vehicle somewhat to the condition before the accident caused by a driver pulling out in front of me gunning from a stop signed intersection.

This is because the sensor on the front of the car is not working and has probably not been plugged back in when the car was at the body shop. Yes, this problem was a direct result of the accident. Here is the location of the sensors in the images below so you know where they are. It is called a Millimeter Wave Radar sensor. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
