Protection during an Accident

Chevrolet understands the important of protecting both the vehicle and its occupants in the event of an accident. That’s why Chevrolets are equipped with reinforced frames, comfortable and effective safety belts, a generous amount of airbags throughout the cabin, and the LATCH feature for child seats. Chevrolets are also known for their excellent scores on crash tests conducted by the federal government and various organizations throughout the country such as the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

Safety after an Accident

In the unfortunate event that you are ever in an accident, you can depend on a new Chevrolet to keep you safe. After an accident, any Chevrolet with OnStar that’s newer than 2007 will be able to send an alert to an OnStar advisor. The advisor will be connected to your vehicle in order to ask if you are okay. If you don’t respond, or if you request assistance, the OnStar advisor will send your exact GPS location to emergency responders.
