rkaplan Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 On a 2011 Edge Limited I have noticed that when my car is in reverse and there is traffic on the steet I am backing into, I get a visible alert on the dash telling me there is traffic coming from the left or right. However, there is no audible alert. Do others have the audible alert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to the collision alert sound with the red bar on the windshield if not the exact same sound. **realizing now that this makes me sound like a very unsafe driver** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there is no audible alert. Do others have the audible alert? Yes, there is definitely an audio alert. You might play with the settings for the system. Maybe you have backup alert turned off. I believe it's accessible on the left hand joystick/screen. It's also in the settings for the car on the MFT panel, but you have to dig deep to find it. If you have it enabled and aren't getting audible alerts, it sounds like you have a glitch that needs repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have missed it because the beer made some of the pages stick together. Edited December 2, 2010 by tonyabionda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
