Blind-spot Collision-Avoidance Assist is designed to detect approaching vehicles in the driver’s blind spots and warn the driver of a possible collision with a warning indicator and a warning sound. If it detects that there is a collision risk when exiting a parallel parking space, BCA may assist with braking the vehicle to help avoid a collision.
If another vehicle is detected within the BCA warning boundary
, an indicator may illuminate on the outside Rearview mirrors.

When the vehicle detection warning is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning.
When you are driving forward out of a parking space, if BCA determines that there’s a collision risk with an approaching vehicle in the blind spot, it can help avoid collision by applying the brake. Your vehicle needs to be traveling slower than 2 mph and the approaching vehicle is traveling faster than 3 mph.
Only adjust settings when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift is in Park and the ignition is on or the Engine Start/Stop button is in the ON position
