Symptom | Possible Cause |
---|---|
The system does not search for a parking space. | You may have switched traction control off. |
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able to detect a parking space. | |
The system does not offer a parking space. | The sensors may be blocked. For example, snow, ice or large accumulations of dirt. Blocked sensors can affect how the system functions. |
The sensors in the front or rear bumper could be damaged. | |
There is not enough room in the parking space for your vehicle to safely park. | |
There is not enough space for the parking maneuver on the opposite side of the parking space. | |
The parking space is more than 5 ft (1.5 m) or less than 2 ft (0.5 m) away. | |
The vehicle speed is greater than 22 mph (35 km/h) for parallel parking or greater than 19 mph (30 km/h) for perpendicular parking. | |
You recently disconnected or replaced the battery. After you reconnect the battery you must drive your vehicle on a straight road for a short period of time. | |
The system does not correctly position your vehicle in a parking space. | An irregular curb along the parking space prevents the system from correctly aligning your vehicle. |
Vehicles or objects bordering the space may not be correctly parked. | |
Your vehicle stopped too far past the parking space. | |
The tires may not be correctly installed or maintained. For example, not inflated correctly, improper size, or of different sizes. | |
A repair or alteration changes the detection capabilities. | |
A parked vehicle has a high attachment. For example, a salt sprayer, snowplow or moving truck bed. | |
The parking space length or position of parked objects changes after your vehicle passes the space. | |
You are using a spare tire or a tire that is significantly worn more than the other tires. | |
The temperature around your vehicle quickly changes. For example, driving from a heated garage into cold outside temperature, or after leaving a car wash. |
