text: how does the lexus ls parallel park automatically?  how well can it auto-park? no need to get very specific.  in general, how does this feature work? it parks it self through a series of sensors switches and servos the driver is the one that needs to check celarances and use the brakes to slow or stop the car  although it is all programmed into the car by the factory it really wouldnt be that hard to figure out  that there is a servo activated motor somewhere in the sterring column to move the steering shaft left to right
