Left Side Mirror Right Side Mirror
Display
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror LCA displays will
briefly come on to indicate the
system is operating. When the
vehicle is moving forward, the left-
or right-side mirror display will light
up if a vehicle is detected in the
next lane over in that blind zone or
rapidly approaching that zone. If the
turn signal is activated in the same
direction as a detected vehicle, this
display will flash as an extra
warning not to change lanes.
LCA can be disabled through
vehicle personalization. See
Collision/Detection Systems under
driver, the LCA mirror displays will
not light up.

When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The LCA system requires some
driving for the system to calibrate to
maximum performance. This
calibration may occur more quickly if
the vehicle is driving on a straight
highway road with traffic and
roadside objects (e.g., guardrails,
barriers).
LCA displays may not come on
when passing a vehicle quickly. LCA
may alert to objects attached to the
vehicle, such as a trailer, bicycle,
or object extending out to either side
of the vehicle. Attached objects may
also interfere with the detection of
vehicles. This is normal system
operation; the vehicle does not need
service.
. If LCA is disabled by the
Driving and Operating
LCA may not always alert the driver
to vehicles in the next lane over,
especially in wet conditions or when
driving on sharp curves. The system
does not need to be serviced. The
system may light up due to
guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and
other non-moving objects. This is
normal system operation; the
vehicle does not need service.
LCA may not operate when the LCA
sensors in the left or right corners of
the rear bumper are covered with
mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in
heavy rainstorms. For cleaning
instructions, see "Washing the
Vehicle" under
. If the DIC still displays
the system unavailable message
after cleaning both sides of the
vehicle toward the rear corners of
the vehicle, see your dealer.
If the LCA displays do not light up
when vehicles are in the side blind
zone or rapidly approaching this
zone and the system is clean, the
system may need service. Take the
vehicle to your dealer.
