This morning as I reversed out of the drive way I received the following alert- “reverse parking assist not available”. Then when I got to work and went to park I got “parking assist not available at this time”. Has anyone else experienced this?

I have not......but I think I remember reading something in the workshop manual that explains why this message may be displayed. I will try and find it for you.....

Reverse Parking Assist is the backup camera. Controlled by the IPMA (Image Processing Module A). Your camera may be dirty or the system might have been disabled. I have observed some settings in SYNC (APIM) getting reset or stuck when an OTA is pushed to the car.
Here is some text from the WSM...


The parking aid system is disabled if a fault is detected in a parking aid system. This is indicated by a parking aid disabled warning message in the message center.

The parking aid system is enabled and disabled through the parking aid switch located in the center stack. The rear parking aid remains disabled for one ignition cycle.

It is likely everything will reset on your next key cycle.

Yes, I’ve experienced this a few times. Not frequently enough to recreate. I keep my car very clean so it is not a dirty sensor issue. It appears to be #JustAnotherBug.

Yeah I posted something similar to this, this weekend. It just started for me and isn't a dirty sensor thing either. Seems to be another bug like the previous post. It only happened to me once and all it required I do is go to back into the settings and reselect the parking aid function or something like that.

Ok-so if it doesn't go away with the next run cycle I will do that.

I had that pop up on Sunday with both back and front camera when parking.
It said to contact my dealer for servicing.
Upon returning to the MME about 15 mins later - no issues.

So if I go mud-whomping like I do in my Blazer, I should expect this to happen. :)

My guess you were caring both your phone and the fob. It switched between the two.
