HOW DOES BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM WITH
TRAILER COVERAGE WORK
The blind spot information system with
trailer coverage is designed to detect
vehicles that could have entered the blind
spot zone. The detection area is on both
sides of your vehicle and trailer, extending
rearward from the exterior mirrors to the
end of your trailer. When you attach a
trailer and have set up a trailer, the blind
spot information system with trailer tow
becomes active when driving forward
above 6 mph (10 km/h).
You can set up the trailer length, select a
trailer or switch blind spot information
system with trailer tow off.

Note: The system remembers the last
trailer setting when you start your vehicle.

Some trailers may cause a slight change
in system performance:
• Wide box trailers, especially those

next to infrastructure or near parked
cars. A false alert may also occur while
making a 90-degree turn or driving
through a roundabout.
• Wide trailers that have a total length
greater than 20 ft (6 m) may cause
delayed alerts when a vehicle is
passing at high speed.
• Box trailers that have a width greater
than 7.9 ft (2.4 m) may cause early
alerts when you pass a vehicle.
• Clam shell or V-Nose box trailers with
a width greater than 7.9 ft (2.4 m) may
cause delayed alerts when a vehicle
traveling the same speed as your
vehicle merges lanes.
