Abstract
Method and apparatus are disclosed for audio alerts for remote park-assist tethering. An example vehicle includes an exterior surface, a speaker, a communication node for wireless communication with a mobile device, an autonomy unit for remote parking, and a controller. The controller is to receive, via the communication node, an instruction from the mobile device to perform the remote parking and emit an alert, via the speaker, responsive to determining the mobile device is beyond a threshold range from the exterior surface while sending the instruction.
