Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA)
If your vehicle has the Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA) system it is designed to help
you park while in REVERSE (R). It operates only
at speeds less than 5 mph (8 km/h). URPA
helps make parking easier and helps you avoid
colliding with objects such as parked vehicles. The
URPA system detects objects that are close to
the rear of the vehicle which are at least 10 inches
(25.4 cm) off the ground and below hood or
tailgate level. The system detects objects up to
8 feet (2.5 m) behind your vehicle. The URPA
sensors determine how close these objects are
from your bumper within this area.
{ CAUTION:
Even with the Ultrasonic Rear Park Assist
system, the driver must check carefully
before backing up. The system does not

operate above speeds of 5 mph
(8 km/h). The system does not detect
objects more than 8 feet (2.5 meters)
behind the vehicle. This detection
distance limit may be reduced during
warm weather or high humidity. Also, the
system does not detect objects that are
below your bumper, underneath your
vehicle, or some objects very close to the
vehicle. The system is not designed to
detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists,
or pets.
So, unless you check carefully behind
your vehicle while you are backing up,
they could be injured or killed.
Whether or not you are using rear park
assist, always check carefully behind your
vehicle before backing up and then watch
closely as you do.
