The Driver Alert Package
The Driver Alert Package consists of perimeter lighting and three driver-assistance features. Its Front and Rear Park Assist gives distance alerts to any nearby objects while you park. As you back out of a parking spot, Rear Cross Traffic Alert detects and warns of traffic behind the Sierra 1500. Once on the road, Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert warns when a vehicle is in your side blind zone so that you know not to switch lanes.
