A method for autonomously parking or un-parking a motor vehicle includes locating the motor vehicle relative to a parking area, selecting a destination location within the parking area, generating a path from the location of the motor vehicle to the destination location, wherein the path includes a plurality of linked nodes, each node having a cost associated therewith, wherein the cost of a child node is equal to an inherited cost plus a base cost and a change cost, wherein the change cost is a function of characteristics of a parent node, and autonomously driving the motor vehicle along the path from the location of the motor vehicle to the destination location.
