In an apparatus for providing information about a vehicle's surroundings, if failure in a sensor occurs, a warning fault calculating unit registers "fault" in the entry of a warning type influenced by the failure in the sensor and generates a message warning that an operation fault has occurred in the warning type due to the failure. A warning generating unit determines whether the vehicle is in a state in which a warning the warning type should be generated on the basis of sensor information received from a sensor information processing unit. If the warning should be generated, the warning generating unit transmits a warning of the warning type to a warning output control unit. The warning generating unit does not transmit a warning of the warning type if the fault status of the warning type is "fault".
