Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)

The SBZA system is a lane-changing aid that
assists drivers with avoiding crashes that
occur with moving vehicles in the side blind
zone, or blind spot areas. When the vehicle
is in a forward gear, the left or right side
mirror display will light up if a moving
vehicle is detected in that blind zone. If the
turn signal is activated and a vehicle is also
detected on the same side, the display will
flash as an extra warning not to change
lanes. Since this system is part of the Lane
Change Alert (LCA) system, read the entire
LCA section before using this feature.

Lane Change Alert (LCA)

If equipped, the Lane Change Alert (LCA)
system is a lane-changing aid that can assist
drivers with avoiding lane change crashes
with moving vehicles in the side blind zone,
or blind spot areas or with vehicles rapidly
approaching these areas from behind. When
a vehicle is detected in the blind zone, the
LCA warning display will light up in the
corresponding side mirror and will flash if
the turn signal is on. The Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA) system is included as part of
the LCA system.
Warning
LCA does not alert the driver to vehicles
outside of the system detection zones,
pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. It may
not provide alerts when changing lanes
under all driving conditions. Failure to use
proper care when changing lanes may
result in injury, death, or vehicle damage.
Before making a lane change, always
check mirrors, glance over your shoulder,
and use the turn signals.

approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft) and
2 m (6 ft) off the ground. Drivers are also
warned of vehicles rapidly approaching this
