A sensor failure detection system as described herein can be deployed in an automotive active front steering control system. The sensor failure detection system identifies a failed sensor and its associated failure mode based upon an analysis of sensor state patterns, where a sensor state pattern represents the output for a plurality of sensors taken at one sensor position. A sensor failure is indicated in response to the detection of a first repeating state pattern over two adjacent sensor positions, and a second repeating state pattern over two other adjacent sensor positions.
