Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) System
If equipped, Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) displays a red
warning triangle with a left or
right pointing arrow on the
infotainment display to warn
of traffic coming from the left
or right. This system detects
objects coming from up to
20 m (65 ft) from the left or
right side of the vehicle. When
an object is detected, either
three beeps sound from the
left or right or three Safety
Alert Seat pulses occur on the
left or right side, depending on
the direction of the detected
vehicle.
Use caution while backing up
when towing a trailer, as the
RCTA detection zones that
extend out from the back of
Driving and Operating
the vehicle do not move
farther back when a trailer is
attached to the vehicle.
Driving With a Trailer
Use caution while backing up
when towing a trailer. The
RCTA feature is automatically
disabled when a trailer is
attached to the vehicle.
