Backup/Rearview Camera
I've looked in 'search', and the operator's manual and can't find the answer: do our backup cameras issue an audible proximity warning when we come too close to an object when reversing?? I've tried getting really close to another vehicle (mine) and nothing happens. Wondering if there's a way to enable this? Thanks!

Does your car have Parktronic? It'll only make the audible warning if you have the parking sensors in the bumpers.
