Thumbs up

I live in the city of San Francisco and I don't know about many other cities but here some curbs are extremely higher then others and i often find myself activating the PDC when I pull into a parking space. Without fail I have scratched my passenger side bumper for the 3rd time on my second bumper. Is there a way to adjust the sensor?

No - unfortunately the sensors are preset in where they look and how sensitive they are to objects. I suggest go slower when you pull in -- there is a slight time lag between the sensors and the screen and this may be part of the problem. If the curb just doesn't fall into the sensors path/range, then you're out of luck my friend...
