PDC are the standard acoustic sensors that tell you when you are close to other objects. Park Assist is the automatic parallel parking function.

Park Distance Control (PDC) uses ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers to help you judge the distance to other cars and unseen objects when parking. The beeping becomes faster as your bumper approaches the object, turning into a constant tone when the distance is less than 12 inches.

Parking Assistant makes parking a breeze. Using ultrasonic sensors integrated into the side indicators, the system searches for and measures parking spaces. When a space at least four feet longer than your vehicle is spotted, it is shown on your Control Display. Shift into reverse and the system takes control of steering your vehicle into the space.
