Front Parking sensors

So when you are pulling into a parking space - hit the PDC button and the parking sensors (front an rear) will activate.

But BE CAREFUL - the Front Sensors DO NOT always indicate when trouble is near. See the picture below - NO sensor indication for that curb - whew! it was close!

I got a little too close tonight

This may be one of the more useful posts I've seen on here in a while. Gonna try it. Thanks

Don't ever RELY on any sensors, just use them as an added aid and you'll NEVER scrape your bumper. It all comes down to knowing how to drive/park. Always has, always will.

Not all of us are as gifted and wonderful as you
