Communication probably isn't the right word. The pilots are given the logs for all recent issues.

The prior flight called in a panpan distress signal for the exact same sensor failure and subsequently disabled the system to continue flying.

No one is really meant to communicate this to a commercial pilot, they're expected to read it themselves pre-flight.

... you are suggesting that information about new systems should be communicated to pilots only through self study of near crash reports? So if someone updates the system they just sit back and wait for the first time the system crashes or almost chrashes a plane in order for pilots to learn about it?

No, you read that wrong.

Fair points.
