Nissan Rear Door Alert system reminds drivers to check their rear seats
04 Aug 2017|2,263 views
Potential issues posed by interior car temperatures can have more serious consequences but Nissan hopes its new Rear Door Alert (RDA) may help reduce concerns. The new RDA system can help remind Nissan owners to check the rear seat by using a series of distinctive honks as the driver is walking away from the vehicle. The audio alerts distinguish the Nissan RDA from other systems in the marketplace.
Nissan's RDA monitors rear door switches to detect their open/closed status prior to and after a trip. If the system detects that a rear door was opened/closed prior to a trip, but was not opened again after the trip was completed - given the vehicle was put in park and the ignition cycled off - the system responds with a series of notifications, starting with a display in the instrument panel and progressing to subtle but distinctive chirps of the horn.
Because there are so many scenarios in which a driver might open a rear door - everything from throwing in a gym bag to cleaning the car - the RDA system is easily configurable and can be turned off temporarily or permanently through prompts in the cluster display.
