Too many false alarms
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this radar detector to replace an older one that I had for about 8 years that finally died. I had a chance to try this detector out on a 6 hour round trip drive between PA and NY. The detector did pick up numerous K band signals (I didn't bother to use X band), all of which turned out to be false alarms. The problem is that many newer cars have proximity sensors which constantly trigger the radar detector and make it impossible to detect police radars. So, I returned it and will be relying on Waze for police information.

Posted .Changing the SEN mode to Medium or Low reduces K band false alerts.

ITS ALRIGHT
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The suction cups are terrible, the radar detector has fallen off my windshield so many times the voice is distorted. Sounds like a 80 year old lady with throat cancer :( also alarms even when the wind blows .... very annoying when you have a migraine.

Posted .Thank you for choosing Cobra. It's important to remember that police vehicles may not always operate radar/laser, which is required to trigger an alert. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at 800-543-1608.

Posted .We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your feedback. There are several reasons why a radar detector may not provide an alert. The most common reason is that radar was not transmitting. You can find common reasons here: https://support.cobra.com/support/solutions/articles/47001184412-why-didn-t-my-radar-detector-alert-me-
