Prevention
Safety starts with prevention technology inside every Chevy. The Equinox utilizes a system of sensors to detect dangers quickly, which gives drivers extra time to avoid potential collisions. Here are a few of the available features that you can add to the latest Equinox:
- If a vehicle appears in your blind spot while drifting into another lane, then you’ll receive an alert from the Side Blind Zone Alert.
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert uses radars to detect passengers along the back of the vehicle while reversing.
- Forward Collision Alert warns drivers of pedestrians in front of the vehicle while driving.
- Lane Departure Warning alerts drivers who attempt to change lanes without signaling.
- When you’re read to park, Rear Park Assist will guide you into a spot safely.
- Models even have a standard Rear View Camera to help you get a better view of the entire vehicle in reverse.
Protection
Protective features act like a safety net in case of trouble. Models come standard with six dual stage advanced airbags. These airbags are located throughout the cabin to ensure maximum protection. Traction and stability controls are standard and enhance control, no matter the weather or terrain. The cabin is also reinforced for strength and durability from a high-strength steel design.
Response
If an accident occurs, then the Equinox is ready to spring into gear. Each model comes standard with OnStar Automatic Crash Response System for six months, which combines a guidance plan and a crash response system. When the airbags deploy, the Equinox gets in touch with OnStar. A representative will locate the vehicle with GPS and connect you to emergency personnel, even if you cannot respond.
