Reminder Alert Only / Door Sequencing (Not Comprehensive)

GM, Nissan, Subaru, Acura, Buick, Genesis, Honda, Ford, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Infiniti, Kia, Lincoln, Hyundai all offer systems that operate using door sequencing technology that provides an audio and visual alert if the driver opens the back door prior to driving. This type of system would not provide a reminder alert in a number of common scenarios. For example, if you stopped to get gas and did not open the back door while stopped, you would not get a reminder when you get to your final destination. Additionally, a system like this does not have the ability to detect the presence of a child alone inside a vehicle and would not protect children who got into a vehicle and became trapped inside.
