Now I've seen it all...
This has GOT to be the most ridiculous 'feature' I've seen on any vehicle. Ever. There are no words to express my disdain for this 'feature.'... If you can't figure out which way to turn the wheels...
Forum Discussion
This is for the "righty...tighty"..."lefty...loosey" crowd...which will
then get confused as to which end of the knob means that'a'way...
Is it the top, or the bottom of the knob???...or does the manual
use CCW and CW...or 'turn it right'...which might mean the bottom
of the knob to some out there...or am I wrong in assuming that
means the top of the knob???
Wonder if this is 'highly integrated' into the vehicle's computer system(s)???
Assume this is in a 'fly by wire' vehicle...where the steering assist
is fly by wire...the throttle is fly by wire...the brakes are still
directly connected to the human via the pedal, but the ABS/traction
control/torque control/anti-sway control/etc are all highly integrated...
So, do you use the throttle pedal or is there a button to push on this
new feature for throttle? Or is it preset in speed? So if going up
an incline...will it know to give more throttle? Will that dig a
hole if slippery?
Do you brake, or will this feature brake for you? How will it know
when to brake? Will it sense a child standing in the way? Or does
it depend on the human watching the LCD to see that kid and brake
accordingly?

So which way do I turn the knob to make trailer go that way?
