The Chevrolet Malibu is one of the safest cars on the road today, and with good reason. It has a whole suite of safety features to keep you safe in any situation. This blog post will focus on some of the key safety features that are available for this car model.
Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS)
Every Malibu comes with anti-lock brakes as standard equipment. Anti-lock brakes stop the wheels from locking up as you brake. Normally when you hit your brakes, the wheels lock and lose traction, which causes your vehicle to slide or skid out of control. With anti-lock brakes, the wheels never lock and you maintain full control of your car under braking.
Stability Control
Stability control is part of a suite of safety features available for this model. It intervenes when it senses that the rear of your vehicle is starting to slide or spin out during cornering, accelerating, or decelerating. When stability control applies the brakes to a specific wheel, it allows the vehicle to travel in the direction intended. It does not let your car spin out or slide uncontrollably if you have lost control of steering or braking power.
