I don't believe the PDC notifies you for objects under the car as you are asking about the wheel stops. I believe that it looks forward of the bumper for objects. Not sure if you can turn it off or not. I can let you know for sure if mine ever arrives.


Would the PDC tell you how close you were in front to a cement wheel stopper that you see in some parking lots?

I can see that with the sports package and the resulting lowering of the car, that if the cement stopper were too high, it could hit the bumper. Ouch.

Can you shut it off?
