Is A Jeep A Safe Car?

2019 Jeep Wrangler Rear

 

You know that Jeep SUVs deliver best-in-class performance on the trail, but is a Jeep a safe car for traffic and slippery roadways in Toms River? All Jeep models are outfitted with advanced safety systems that monitor road conditions and surrounding vehicles, and then help avoid or mitigate collisions if the driver can’t respond in time. Read on for a guide to Jeep safety features from the team at Automotive Avenues!

 


Key Jeep Safety Features

Even if you use your SUV regularly for off-roading, you still need it to keep you safe in Trenton traffic. And, if you’re a parent, you’ll want to know more about any vehicle’s safety features before you buy. Is a Jeep a safe car for teen drivers and other new drivers? Jeep may be known mainly for capability, but the long list of Jeep safety features is just as impressive:

  • ParkView® Rear Backup Camera: With a backup camera, it’s easier to back into tight spots or hitch up a trailer on the first try.
  • ParkSense® Front & Rear Park Assist System: This system alerts you to vehicles, pedestrians, or objects in front or behind your Jeep when maneuvering in or out of a parking space.
  • LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist: If the vehicle drifts across the lane marker and the turn signal isn’t on, this active Jeep safety feature sends audible and visual warnings to the driver while helping correct your vehicle’s path.
  • Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking: This system warns you if it detects a potential frontal impact. If the risk continues, it will automatically apply the brakes.
  • Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection: If another vehicle enters your blind spot or approaches while you are in reverse, this system can send warnings to help avoid a collision.
  • Adaptive Cruise Control: This system automatically adjusts your cruising speed to keep you at a preselected distance from the vehicle ahead of you.

Trail Rated® Jeep Safety Features

Conditions on the Howell Township trails can be a real challenge when the weather isn’t cooperating. Are Jeeps safe on unstable terrains like mud, gravel, snow, rocks, and sand? Yes! Every Jeep 4×4 model is tested exhaustively for traction, water fording ability, articulation, maneuverability, and ground clearance. Plus, you can enhance your vehicle’s handling and traction with optional performance features like Command-Trac® or Tru-Lok® Electronic Locking Differentials.
