Rear Cross Traffic Alert Driver Information Center Messages

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Chevrolet Trax and 2016 Buick Encore. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT OFF

This message indicates that the system has been disabled through the driver information center. Refer to the vehicle owners manual for instructions on how to set personalization options on the driver information center.

SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM

This message indicates that the system requires service. Since the side object sensors are also used for side blind zone alert and/or lane change alert, these feature will also be inoperative. Check vehicle for DTCs to determine the cause of this notification.

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE

This message indicates that the system has been temporarily disabled because the sensors are blocked or can otherwise not accurately detect vehicles or objects. Verify there is no damage to rear fascia or there are any bumper stickers that may interfere with the radar signals. Ask the customer if any of the following circumstances that present when the system became unavailable: mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush build-up on the rear fascia, heavy rainfall, or excessive road spray.
