<span style="font-family: 'Courier New'">NEW YORK — Sit back, relax and let your car parallel park itself _ without a single scratch or ding to your bumper.

The technology uses ultrasonic sensors on the front and rear of the vehicle, combined with electric power steering to angle and guide it into a snug parking space _ all with the push of a button.</span>
