AN: Cherokee: first self-parking Mopar
The 2014 Jeep Cherokee, the first domestic car (and possibly the first in the world) to use a nine-speed automatic transmission, will also be the first Chrysler Group vehicle to have an automated self-parking system. The optional ParkSense Parallel/Perpendicular Park Assist System (first Chrysler Group availability) is in the center of the gauge cluster and operated with buttons on the steering wheel and the shifter. The park assist screen has a 1941 Jeep Willys graphic on each side of the open parking space. It is part of the optional 7-inch full-color reconfigurable gauge cluster, similar to the one used in Dart and Ram, which provides information and vehicle feedback. The driver can add information such as including turn-by-turn navigation, speed, real-time fuel economy, safety warnings, Adaptive Cruise Control-Plus, audio information, and Selec-Terrain status .

But we do. And Ford already has it. So it was due time. ALTHOUGH, IMO - this is the wrong vehicle to debut it for Chrysler on. Total mismatch with image. I don't know that it matters much, or that it will hurt sales..Jaime said:

That's the same thing I said when I saw the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it looked too luxurious for a Jeep and contradicting its "image." Now I see them everywhere.bumonbox said:

Yep....I missed it somewhere. Lane Departure Warning-Plus, which is offered for the first time in a Chrysler Group vehicle, uses a camera-based vision sensor to establish the Jeep Cherokee's position on the road. If there occurs an unintentional lane drift, determined by trajectory change and the absence of turn-signal activation, the system will deliver a visual warning and a haptic warning - the subtle introduction of torque from the electric power steering (EPS) system. If the driver unintentionally drifts too far, the system provides a secondary visual warning.JoshMHam said:
Geez Chrysler is really stepping up their game. I can only imagine what the refreshed 300 will look like.
