Consumer Description

This vehicle programming includes forward and rear collision warning with both audible and dashboard diagram lights showing which sensors are approaching another object. Unfortunately, in practice, the alarms alert you to something in front or behind you regardless of if you are in gear to move forwards or backwards. This means that everytime you get in gear to leave your parking spot the alarm is dinging because of whatever you pulled up to in your parking spot making drivers have to tune out the audible alarm which is irrelevant and look down at the dash to see where the alerting object is in relation to the vehicle. Reports have been filed with Chrysler but no action has been taken to improve this poor design despite years of it being in effect.
