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...

If you are supposed to watch the video screen while backing up, then I foresee many an accident! My new four-wheel car has the backup screen, and I have already scraped the back fenders on both sides because I was watching the screen and not the side mirrors.
The body shop guy said that backup cameras and Walmart parking lots are what keep him in business!
So, why wouldn't you use the side mirrors when backing your trailer instead of the back up camera screen? Nothing says you can't use it while using your mirrors in the traditional way.
Look in your side views and use the alternate back up control, seems simple.
Volkswagen had it as a feature on backing Caravans in Europe, but I thought if you cannot back anything you should not be towing it
