Michigan drivers prioritize road safety during every season. Gordon Chevrolet provides Chevy
Safety Assist as a standard inclusion on almost every new truck and SUV in our inventory.
This collection of six driver-assistance tools utilizes advanced sensors and cameras to
monitor your environment, prevent accidents, and increase your awareness on the roads around
Garden City and Detroit.
The Six Standard Features
Every Chevrolet vehicle with this suite includes these specific
technologies:
Automatic Emergency Braking
This system operates at speeds under 50 mph to prevent or minimize the force of a front-end
crash. It uses camera data to track the car ahead and applies the brakes automatically if
you do not react in time.
IntelliBeam High Beam Assist
This feature manages your high beams automatically based on exterior lighting and nearby
traffic. It switches to low beams when it identifies oncoming headlights or the taillamps of
a vehicle you are following.
Front Pedestrian Braking
This tool monitors the area directly in front of your vehicle for pedestrians during daytime
driving. If a person is detected at speeds below 50 mph, the car provides an alert and can
engage hard emergency braking to prevent an impact.
Forward Collision Alert
The system monitors the closing speed between you and the vehicle in front. It provides a
warning if a crash is likely or if you are following another driver too closely for safety.
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
The vehicle provides a subtle nudge to the steering wheel if it senses you crossing over
detected lane markers without a turn signal. If the drifting continues, the car issues a
specific Lane Departure Warning to regain your attention.
Following Distance Indicator
Your dashboard displays the exact gap, measured in seconds, between your bumper and the car
ahead. This real-time data helps you maintain a safe buffer in heavy traffic.
Additional Available Safety Features
You can upgrade many Chevrolet models with extra technologies to increase your
protection:
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert:
Triggers a light in your side mirrors if a vehicle occupies your blind spot or is approaching
it quickly.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert:
Warns you of vehicles approaching from the left or right while you are backing out of a
driveway or parking space.
Rear Park Assist:
Uses audible beeps to indicate how close objects are to your rear bumper while reversing at
low speeds.
