The tennis ball helped the driver to park the car in the garage
 
Only remember one scene, probably at the beginning of the movie: a woman in an inexpensive car drives into the garage of an ordinary American house. A tennis ball is tied to the ceiling of the garage. When the ball touches the windshield in front of her, then she presses the brake. The ball is specially tied to the ceiling of the fence so that the driver knows the optimal distance for parking the car in the garage.
Movie probably 2010-2015.

This is gonna be tough because this is a real thing lots of people do in real life, and therefore it's probably in lots of movies. Unless this is a plot point or something.

I don't remember any of those movies.
Key words: female driver, inexpensive car, ordinary American house with a garage.
Year of release of the film, possibly 2010-2016.

Teenage drivers are usually the reason for doing this. At least in my case.

Tried this one with a bowling ball. Do NOT recommend.

Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach ?


It is a comedy movie starring Seann William Scott as a high school janitor who becomes a tennis coach. In one scene, he parks his car in his garage with a tennis ball hanging from the ceiling.

There is no such episode. This is not the movie I'm looking for.

You might as well guess what it is: Terminator, Avatar or Gone with the Wind :(
