While it might adopt a different name depending on the automaker, Blind Spot Monitor is a very popular driver-assistive safety feature found in a vast majority of modern vehicles in production today. It’s one of the most crucial advancements in auto safety of the past decade plus, helping to mitigate the blind spots a driver has when driving their vehicle. You can find hundreds of used vehicles for sale here at Briggs Supercenter in Manhattan, Kansas, with this available feature. If this is a must-have feature for you, be sure to add the filter to your search when shopping for your next used vehicle in our online inventory.
What is Blind Spot Monitor?
It doesn’t matter what kind of vehicle you drive, it has blind spots. This is a term that represents any area around the vehicle that you can’t see when looking in one of your mirrors. Before changing lanes or making similar moves on the roads, it’s important to check these blind spots for other vehicles and the like – even with this technology installed! Blind Spot Monitor is a technology that was invented to supplement this action, by offering a warning whenever something is in one of your blind spots.
What is Rear Cross-Traffic Alert?
A very similar feature that typically utilizes the same system is Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, though once again it may go by other names depending on the manufacturer. This isn’t currently a filterable feature in our online inventory so we thought we’d include it here. This system covers your blind spots when in reverse, such as backing out of a parking spot. It will alert you the same way Blind Spot Monitor does if a vehicle is coming from the left or right behind you while you’re in reverse.
Which vehicles offer Blind Spot Monitoring?
At this point in the technology's life cycle, it’s pretty widespread across the industry. You’d be hard-pressed to find a vehicle that doesn’t have it available in some form or another. Some automakers do consider it a more premium option though, and thus entry-level trims might not have it standard. So not every modern vehicle that passes through our inventory may have it, but you can find just about any type of vehicle from any make or model with it available.
