headliner near the liftgate glass, provides both visual and
audible warnings to indicate the distance between the
rear fascia and the detected obstacle.When the ignition switch is turned to the RUN/ON

for about one second. Each side of the warning display
has six yellow and two red LED lights, one set to warn of
obstacles behind the left rear of the vehicle and the other
set to warn of obstacles behind the right rear of the
vehicle. The vehicle is close to the obstacle when the red
LED is illuminated.
