Air bags help protect the driver and right-front passenger in certain collisions by supplementing the protection provided by safety belts. Dual-stage frontal air bags utilize sensors to help detect the severity of impact and where the seats are. In less severe crashes or when the seats are in the full-forward position, the air bags will deploy at less than full level. The Passenger Sensing System automatically switches the right-front passenger frontal air bag on or off based on the passenger's weight and the type of pressure on the seat. Even with this innovative feature, you should always wear your safety belt and be sure children are properly restrained in the rear seat.
Always use safety belts and proper child restraints, even with air bags. Even with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat (when equipped). See the Owner's Manual and child safety seat instructions for more safety information.
Standard on every new Tahoe, head-curtain side air bags for all rows help reduce the risk of injuries to all outboard occupants in certain side impacts. These air bags cover all rows and are designed to stay inflated in the unlikely event of a rollover to help reduce the risk of ejection.
Head-curtain side air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of head and neck injuries to front and rear outboard seat occupants in certain side-impact collisions. Always use safety belts and proper child restraints, even with air bags. Even with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat. See the Owner’s Manual for more safety information.
A feature that remembers when you don't. Battery-rundown protection automatically shuts off interior lights after the vehicle has been sitting with the engine off for a preset amount of time.
The antilock brake system (ABS) is designed to help drivers maintain steering control by reducing wheel lockup during hard braking on most slippery or dry surfaces.
