Are you looking to get into a safe, reliable SUV that has power and enough comfort for a family of 8? Then it turns out that you may find it in a GMC Acadia in KC. These fantastic SUVs have all that and more to offer. In this article you will find out about some of the most important safety features. You will learn not only about what they do but why they do it, which in most cases can help you learn what to do in case a collision or any other sort of emergency were to occur. Front Center Airbag GMC has exclusively developed a front center airbag, which you would wonder why since the front seat has a center console, so why would you need an airbag there? It’s designed to help better protect the driver and front passenger in case of a side impact. As a vehicle is struck on the side the inertia that throws the driver and passenger can drive them directly into the center of the dashboard. That area has proven to be particularly dangerous due to all of the electronics and protrusions that come out of the dashboard. This strategic airbag placement will prove to prevent many head injuries that previously would have been a major issue. Blind Spot and Rear Crossing Traffic Alerts These strategic features allow you to have the proverbial eyes in the back of your head. The blind spot alert lets you know if there is a car lurking where you are normally unable to see it. So if you’re driving down the highway or interstate and you merge to pass the slow vehicle in front of you and a vehicle is just out of the side of your eye but at the wrong angle to see them in your side or rear view mirrors, then this feature goes into action. It alerts the driver of the vehicle's presence keeping you and your passengers unharmed. The same call to action is initiated when there is a chance of a collision coming from crossing traffic. This feature is not available in all of the packages but is available in most of them. Driver Alert Technologies This feature is available for most of the packages that the Acadia has available. The difference between this option and the previously mentioned is that these alerts are designed to alert you when you are the cause of the possible impact while the others are to prevent you from other drivers. These alerts are initiated when you start to approach the vehicle in front of you too quickly and when you inadvertently deviate from the straight path and start to leave your lane. These handy features are designed obviously to keep you safe but is also keeping the safety of other drivers and families safe from what could have been a simple mistake on your part. OnStar A standard trial account is activated for 6 months and includes some of the handiest and, of course, safe features. Turn by turn navigation, to help you get where you want to go. Roadside assistance, obviously in place assist in time of need. Cases where you would use this are in case you are on the side of the road and you weren’t able to make it the last few miles to the next gas station. Automatic crash response alerts the authorities automatically when a collision occurs. This feature has proven to save innumerable lives. By cutting out the time for some to see that you had an accident and call 911 and then explain what happened and describe where it happened, OnStar goes to work and does that all for you. With the GPS built into it, it knows right where the wreck happened. OnStar is an excellent feature. If you plan on purchasing a GMC Acadia in KC, you can rest assured that you will be protecting yourself, but more importantly, your most precious cargo—your family.
