lane departures when an object is
detected within a specified blind spot

The system displays a visual alert in
each exterior mirror, when detecting
objects that may not be visible in the

Side blind spot alert uses some of the
advanced parking assist sensors
which are located in the front and rear
bumper on both sides of the vehicle.
