Chevy Keeps You Safe!


Vehicle safety is incredibly important.  Think about how many hours every week you spend in your car; don't you want to make sure you are safe?  And especially for families, the safety ratings can be the deciding factor on if someone is going to choose a car to buy.  Well, the employees at Chevrolet Dealer Chattanooga have plenty of safety features they can review with their shoppers, as Chevrolet puts an abundance of safety features standard on their vehicles and then there are optional features you can purchase as well.  This is not to say that a vehicle from a VW Dealer or Ford or Subaru will not keep you and your passengers safe, this is simply reviewing what Chevrolet is doing to keep you safe. 

Installed on many of their vehicles are features that are going to help prevent you from having an accident.  Some examples are traction control, stabilitrak, and antilock brakes.  And if any of these features seem to not be working, you can always bring your vehicle to Cincinnati Chevrolet Service for repair.  ABS should be familiar to most people; help your brakes from locking up when you brake during slippery surfaces, an example being during rainy weather.  If your brakes did lock up, the vehicle would slide out of control.  Stabilitrak does things you don't even know it is doing!  It communicates between the direction you are steering the vehicle and then the actual direction the vehicle is traveling in.  Taking into consideration the speed you are going and environmental forces acting on the vehicle, Stabilitrak will gently apply brake pressure to help correct the vehicle so you continue on your intended course, not the course of all the exterior forces acting around you.  Standard on the entire Chevy line up are daytime running lamps, so that other vehicles and pedestrians have an easier time seeing you during the daylight hours.  Many of the vehicles come with a DIC, or Driver Information Center.  This is the little digital screen near your speedometer that informs you of things going on inside your vehicle and under the hood.  Examples are alerting you that your doors may not be closed properly, you may be running low on fuel, or it is time to change the oil.
