Re: Park Assist

Had this on my last Merdedes. First time I used it to parallel park it finished with the wheels snug to a high sided kerb. All good, until I returned and the new car in front had parked closer to my front bumper. I could not then create enough room by reversing to then put on lock without rubbing m...
