Abstract

A system and method for a squat-responsive mirror and seat control for a vehicle is provided. The system includes a control circuitry configured to receive, from a sensor system, sensor information indicative of a squat condition of the vehicle. The squat condition is caused by a load on a towed trailer coupled to the vehicle. The control circuitry further determines a first position of a mirror assembly or a seat assembly of the vehicle. Based on the sensor information, the control circuitry determines an offset by which the mirror assembly or the seat assembly is to be moved with reference to the first position. Further, the control circuitry controls a movement of at least one of the mirror assembly or the seat assembly from the first position to a second position that is different from the first position.
