Comprehensive Safety – 2016 Chevy Cruze

Chevrolet vehicles are some of the most capable ones in their respective classes — but it’s important to feel safe when putting those capabilities to good use. Built for adventure but designed for safety, Chevy offers a suite of active safety technologies that will put you and your family at ease.* Here’s a breakdown of some of the top features of the GM safety system. Chevrolet Safety Technologies at a Glance Front Pedestrian Braking Keep yourself and pedestrians out of harm’s way. Front Pedestrian Braking can detect when there is a person ahead within your vehicle’s trajectory. If it identifies a risk of collision with the pedestrian, it will engage the brakes. Forward Automatic Braking Mitigate a potential head-on collision. Forward Automatic Braking will identify a potential collision ahead and apply braking as needed. Whether it’s a high or low speed accident, this feature can help. Lane Keep Assist With Lane Departure Warning Stay in your lane throughout your entire drive. If you start to veer outside of your lane without your turning signal on, this feature provides lane departure warnings and light steering adjustments to ensure you stay safely in your lane. Forward Collision Alert Stay safe in traffic. A lot of starting and stopping can be tricky, and Forward Collision Alert will help you avoid bumping into the car in front of you accordingly. It will alert you if you approach the vehicle ahead too closely. Rear Cross Traffic Alert Back out of a parking spot or driveway with confidence. This feature will detect whether there is cross traffic behind your car, coming either from the left or right side, and alert you to it.

Now that colder weather is behind us and summer is just around the corner, it’s time for us to start considering how we can ensure good vehicle health for the rest of the year. Luckily, April is National Car Care Month. Follow the steps outlined below and you’ll be on your way to being a better vehicle owner, while also saving time and money on maintenance. National Car Care Month Checklist Get an Oil Change If you do nothing else on this list, inspecting and changing your oil should be a priority this month. In just 15 to 45 minutes, you can prevent the parts in your vehicle’s engine from grinding and wearing down, effectively safeguarding your engine from failing. You don’t need a professional to get your oil changed, but don’t hesitate to get help from one if you don’t feel confident or don’t have the necessary equipment. Check Your Brakes The harsh weather of winter necessitates that we keep our foot close to the brakes so we can drive safely. Unfortunately, this can negatively impact our brakes’ health and efficacy down the line. Sometime this month, listen closely for squeaking, grinding, or crunching sounds when you hit the brakes. If you hear any of those, take your vehicle into a service center for a brake inspection. Replace All Necessary Fluids As time goes on, you may notice that certain systems within your vehicle begin to function less-than-optimally. This is because people often forget to check on the levels of critical fluids that keep their vehicle running, such as transmission, power steering, coolant, and brake fluid. Top off your fluid levels to avoid any issues, especially your coolant — the greatest cause for breakdowns in the summer is overheating according to the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. Test the AC There’s nothing worse than getting into a hot vehicle on an already sweltering day, turning the AC on, and then discovering that it’s busted. To avoid this nightmare scenario before it’s too late, turn your AC on and determine whether or not the temperature is right for you. If the air coming out of the vents is too hot, you might need to have your freon recharged.
