Nissan offers Rear Door Alert on 12 cars in US
By CARSIFU | 14 July 2020
LOS ANGELES: Nissan will offer its Rear Door Alert (RDA) safety technology on 12 models in the United States.
For model year 2020, RDA is standard on the Nissan Altima, Armada, Kicks (SV and SR), LEAF, Murano, Maxima, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, TITAN (King Cab and Crew Cab) and Versa (SV and SR).
RDA was the industry's first system to use the horn, in addition to door sensors and a message display on the center instrument panel, to remind drivers to check the back seat after the vehicle is parked.
Once activated, the system monitors when a rear door is opened and closed before and after the vehicle is in motion.
If a rear door was used before a trip but was not opened after the vehicle is parked, the system reminds the driver to check the rear seat.
Once the vehicle is in park, the system will first display a notification in the instrument panel. If the driver exits the vehicle and does not open a rear door, the system progresses to distinctive chirps of the horn.
Nissan said it remains committed to bringing its RDA technology to all four-door trucks, sedans and SUVs by 2022.
