Buick LaCrosse: Ultrasonic Parking Assist
If available, the Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist (URPA) system assists the driver with parking and avoiding objects while in R (Reverse). URPA operates at speeds less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
The sensors on the rear bumper detect objects up to 2.5 m (8 ft) behind the vehicle, and at least 20 cm (8 in) off the ground.
WARNING!
The URPA system does not

animals, or any other objects

URPA operates only at speeds less
than 8 km/h (5 mph).
