The New 2014 Silverado is a Safety First For Trucks

The 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 is the first pickup truck to receive the highest possible five-star Overall Vehicle Score for safety since the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration changed its New Car Assessment Program for the 2011 model year.

Safety Features:
  • Safety Alert Seat warns driver of potential traffic danger using directional vibration pulses from the seat cushions. The patented warning approach is tied to all of the on-board crash avoidance systems.
  • Forward collision alert technology helps prevent a frontal crash by alerting the driver when the truck is closing in on a vehicle ahead too quickly, giving them time to react and avoid a crash.
  • Lane Departure Warning technology alerts the driver when the truck drifts over the line and is traveling at least 35 mph.
  • Rear Vision Camera with Dynamic Guidelines allows the driver, when in reverse, to view objects directly behind the vehicle via the radio screen, allowing for easier parking and backing up.
  • New, standard lap belt pretensions in the front-seat outboard safety belts.
  • Six standard air bags and 360-degree sensor system, including dual-stage frontal air bags, head-curtain side-impact air bags with rollover protection, and seat-mounted side-impact air bags.
  • Trailer-sway control that works with StabiliTrak to provide the driver with driver additional assistance when towing a trailer. When it senses trailer sway, it intervenes with braking and/ or reduced engine power to bring the trailer under control.
  • Four-wheel, four-channel, antilock disc brakes (ABS) that help provide straight, more controlled stops by preventing wheel lock-up in most road conditions.
Stop by the dealership and take a test drive in the remarkable new 2014 Silverado!
