REMOTE TRAILER BACKUP ASSIST MULTIPLE USER ENGAGEMENT

Systems and methods for operating a vehicle during a remote trailer parking operation include receiving, via a processor, a control instruction from a first mobile device indicative of a first curvature command providing directional control of a vehicle, and a first user engagement indicator. The processor may receive, from a second mobile device, a second control instruction from a second mobile device, the second control instruction can include a second user engagement indicator. The system may determine, based on the first user engagement indicator that first user engagement meets a threshold, and determine, based on the second user engagement indicator that second user engagement meets a threshold. Responsive to determining user engagement with the trailer parking procedure, the processor may cause a vehicle controller to operate the vehicle to park a trailer pivotably disposed with the vehicle based on the first curvature command, the first user engagement indicator, and the second user engagement indicator, to complete a remote trailer parking operation.
