Parking Sensors

Hey everyone. So I have reason to believe the previous owner got into a front end accident and didn't disclose it to me before buying the car. I have the rear parking sensors on my car in addition to the navigation and active cruise control. Does anyone know if I'm supposed to have the front parking sensors as well? The stealership said that there's a possibility that it could, but they didn't give me a definitive answer.

Do you have a PDC button in the middle? Looks like this: http://www.bpmsport.com/media/catalo.../pdcbutton.jpg .

In any case, you don't need it. The car will run fine without them if it's indeed missing them. It may give a check control idrive message that can be coded out if desired, however if you have the button I would look into installing new camera's, the wiring is already done so it would be easy to install.
