2019 E450 - It is my understanding from a prior post that audio warnings are not available for the rear camera unless you have the Parking Assistance Package. If that is true, can the dealer install this package? Or can they just turn on the rear camera audio?

Thanks

Are you referring to the rear bumper parking sensors, which beep when you get close to objects? If you are and it wasn't included in your build, it's very unlikely it can be added after the car was built. It's not like just turning on a switch, but you can certainly ask your dealer if there are any options for you.

rbrylaw is correct. It would be cost prohibitive IMO in trying to get the Park assistance feature now.......way more than the option cost....and I don't think it could be done; certainly not by the dealer. It involves a complex array of cameras, radar units, etc. There is no rear mirror audio or switch as such. It's all part of the integrated package of parking assist.
