SAFETY

SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT

What if your driver’s seat vibrated as a way to alert you to a potential hazard? What if when you signaled a lane change and

another vehicle entered your side blind zones, an icon ﬂashed in the driver-side mirror? What if your car sensed the threat of

a forward collision, and not only warned you but could apply the brakes to help you avoid the crash? Those are some of the

ways Buick LaCrosse can help protect you. Available FORWARD COLLISION ALERT warns the driver of a potential collision

with a vehicle ahead. If necessary, the available FRONT AUTOMATIC BRAKING can even automatically apply the brakes

if it detects you may not be reacting quickly enough to this threat. Available ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL automatically adjusts

the vehicle speed to maintain a driver-selected following gap to vehicles ahead, even in stop-and-go trafﬁc. Available LANE

CHANGE ALERT and SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT warn you of vehicles in the next lane approaching fast from behind and of

WHEN YOU

FEEL SECURE

vehicles in your side blind zones. To help you avoid unintentional slow lane drifts, available LANE DEPARTURE WARNING

reads the lane markings at speeds above 35 mph. If you haven’t put on your turn signal and the system senses your car

departs its lane, it ﬂashes a yellow icon to alert you. And with the available SAFETY ALERT SEAT, when the Lane Departure

Warning system’s camera detects your LaCrosse is leaving a lane without a turn signal active in that direction, a vibration

in the driver’s left or right seat bolster directs your attention to the side of the lane encroachment. When a potential collision

ahead is detected by the Forward Collision Alert system, both sides of the seat vibrate. Safety features are no substitute for

the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to trafﬁc, surroundings

and road conditions at all times. Read the vehicle Owner’s Manual for more important safety information.
