Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
On vehicles with the RCTA, a
warning triangle with a left or right
pointing arrow may also display on
the RVC screen to warn of traffic
coming from the left or the right.
Three beeps will also sound. This
system detects objects coming from
up to 20 m (65 ft) from the left or
right side behind the vehicle. The
RCTA system will not work properly
if ice, snow, mud, or anything else
builds up on the rear bumper
sensors.
Use caution while backing up when
towing a trailer, as the RCTA
detection zones that extend out
from the back of your vehicle do not
move further back when a trailer is
towed.
On some vehicles, RCTA can be
turned on or off through the
infotainment system:
1. Shift into P (Park).
2. Press the CONFIG button to
enter the configure menu
options.
3. Select Display Settings.
4. Select Rear Camera Options.
5. Select Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
When a checkmark appears
next to the option, the feature
is on.
