Blind-spot Collision-Avoidance Assist uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver’s blind spot area, when exiting parallel parking, and before changing lanes. Initially, BCA is designed to provide a Blind-spot Collision Warning when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors. If there is a collision risk when exiting a parallel parking space, BCA may assist with braking the vehicle to help avoid a collision.

Vehicle detection: When another vehicle is detected within the BCW warning boundary , an indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors .

Collision warning: 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 BCA will sound a warning.

Collision-Avoidance Assist: If there is a collision risk when exiting a parallel 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.
