Easy enough to test. Take a couch cushion or cardboard box out and try to back up or run into it under 4mph. It will beep and if it doesn’t apply brakes automatically, it doesn’t work. This is the easiest system to check but I seem to be the only to test it so far. Pretend you are backing into a space with the box behind you and you misjudge it by 3 inches and tap the cushion or box with towel over it. We should have more forum testing of basic systems like this. It’s certainly more important than a lot of this minor tech issues.
