safety driver assistance technology
GMC understands safety is an important consideration for drivers who are looking to buy or lease a new vehicle.
That’s why the innovative safety and driver-assistance technologies available on GMC vehicles help offer awareness of potential road hazards, help encourage safe driving habits and bring added confidence. This comprehensive approach will give you a world-class driving experience and can help people inside and outside of the vehicle stay safe.
It’s important to remember these safety or driver assistance 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. Visibility, weather, and road conditions may affect feature performance. Read the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for more important feature limitations and information.
You can’t predict what can happen out on the road. A vehicle equipped with advanced safety and driver assistance technologies can help you avoid a potential collision.
This is where GMC Pro Safety and GMC Pro Safety Plus play a role. These two suites of innovative technologies are currently available for 2021 Terrain, Acadia, Yukon and Yukon XL. Looking ahead, GMC Pro Safety and GMC Pro Safety Plus availability is intended to expand in the future.
GMC Pro Safety includes the following:
GMC Pro Safety Plus includes the above listed technologies, as well as:
From navigating tight parking lots to hitching up a trailer, driving a GMC means added views with the help of available camera technologies that are accessed through the infotainment screen.
The availability of camera views is different across the GMC lineup with the 2021 Yukon offering up to a class-leading 9 camera views.
The types of camera views from GMC include:
All of us can occasionally be absentminded.
A busy day at work or running errands may cause you to be distracted and forget to grab items from the back seat. However, with Rear Seat Reminder† you’ve got some help in remembering to check the back seat before leaving the vehicle. The technology is standard on 2021 vehicles Acadia, Terrain, Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra 1500 and Sierra Heavy Duty.
While it doesn’t detect people or objects in the rear seat, Rear Seat Reminder does monitor the vehicle’s rear doors. The feature is intended to activate if a person opens and closes either rear door within 10 minutes before the vehicle is started.
Rear Seat Reminder is active only once the vehicle is turned on and off and requires reactivation on a second trip. In addition, the system may activate under some circumstances even though nothing is in the rear seat.
Experience is a significant part to safely operating a motor vehicle. It’s also something teenage drivers have yet to develop.
That’s why GMC made Teen Driver. This technology not only helps to reinforce safe driving habits, like wearing your seat belt and watching your speed, but provides feedback on a teen’s driving performance through an in-vehicle report card.
To activate Teen Driver, owners program the equipped vehicle key fob. Once registered, the vehicle will operate under the following parameters:
Parents can use a custom PIN to enable features, which include:
Drivers want to feel ready for anything when they’re behind the wheel.
And with GMC, you’ll get the benefit of safety and driver assistance features to help you feel confident and safe.
