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).

BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM WITH TRAILER
COVERAGE LIMITATIONS
Trailer coverage only supports
conventional trailers. The system turns off
if you select a fifth wheel or gooseneck
trailer type.
Make sure the trailer width is less than or
equal to 8 ft (2.4 m) and the length is less
than 33 ft (10.1 m). If you input values
higher, the system turns off.
Some trailers could cause a slight change
in system performance:
Large box trailers could cause false
alerts to occur when driving next to
infrastructures or near parked cars. A
false alert could also occur while
making a 90-degree turn.
Trailers that have a width greater than
8 ft (2.4 m) at the front and have a
total length greater than 20 ft (6 m)
could cause delayed alerts when a
vehicle is passing at high speeds.
Box trailers that have a width greater
than 8 ft (2.4 m) at the front could
cause early alerts when you pass a
vehicle.
Clamshell or V-nose box trailers with
a width greater than 8 ft (2.4 m) at the
front could cause delayed alerts when
a vehicle traveling the same speed as
your vehicle merges lanes.
