False Alerts
Note: If you connected a trailer to your
vehicle, the Blind Spot Information System
may detect the trailer causing a false alert.
To avoid false alerts you may want to turn
the system off manually.
There may be certain instances when either
the Blind Spot Information or Cross Traffic
Alert systems illuminate the alert indicator
with no vehicle in the coverage zone; this is
known as a false alert. Some amount of false
alerts are normal; they are temporary and
self-correct.
System Errors
If the system senses a problem with the left
or right sensor, the telltale will illuminate and
a message will appear in the information
display. See Information Messages (page
106).
