Safety is more than a feature—it’s a feeling of confidence every time you get behind the wheel. The Buick Enclave is designed with that peace of mind at its core, combining advanced technology with thoughtful engineering to help protect you. Whether you’re navigating daily commutes, weekend errands, or long family road trips, the Enclave’s safety features work to keep you aware, and secure. In this post, we’ll take a closer look at how the Buick Enclave puts safety first on every drive.
Buick Enclave Safety Features
Forward Collision Alert
Forward Collision Alert will warn you if it detects a potential collision with a vehicle ahead or if you’re following too closely. The system uses a forward-facing camera and radar sensors to monitor traffic, displaying visual alerts and sounding beeps when a collision risk increases so you can take action.
Following Distance Indicator
The Following Distance Indicator shows the time, in seconds, between your vehicle and the one you’re following. This clear visual cue helps you maintain a safe following distance, especially in heavy traffic or on the highway.
Buckle to Drive
Buckle to Drive encourages seat belt use by temporarily preventing the vehicle from being shifted out of PARK until the driver’s seat belt is buckled. On some vehicles, it can also require the front passenger to buckle up, reinforcing safe habits before every drive.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
When you’re in Reverse, Rear Pedestrian Alert can warn you if pedestrians are detected directly behind your vehicle. Using the Rear Vision Camera, this feature adds extra awareness in parking lots and driveways, though performance may be limited in low visibility or nighttime conditions.
Blind Zone Steering Assist
Blind Zone Steering Assist alerts you if a moving vehicle is detected in the lane you’re attempting to enter. If needed, it can also provide a brief, firm steering wheel input to help reduce the risk of a lane-change collision.
With a thoughtful combination of alerts, indicators, and driver-assist technologies, the Buick Enclave is built to help you stay aware and confident behind the wheel. These safety features work together to support safer driving decisions, whether you’re navigating daily traffic, or heading out on a longer journey, the Enclave helps make every drive feel more secure for you and your passengers.
