A system for assisting in aligning a vehicle for hitching with a trailer includes a steering system including a set of vehicle steered wheels and a controller. The controller checks the system for a plurality of pre-maneuver conditions and communicates to a driver the need to correct at least one of the pre-maneuver conditions. When all pre-maneuver conditions are met, the controller executes an automated hitching maneuver that includes controlling the steered wheels of the steering system in backing the vehicle toward the trailer.
