Active and Passive Safety
The Jeep Grand Cherokee safety features are integrated into every segment of the vehicle. Starting with the framework of the vehicle, Jeep equipped the latest Grand Cherokee with front and rear crumple zones to disperse energy in the case of a collision. And no matter where you sit in the cabin, you'll be protected by the advanced airbag system. From multistage driver airbags to side-curtain airbags to knee bolsters, the Jeep engineers went the extra mile to ensure your total safety on the road.
In addition to the many passive safety measures, the Jeep Grand Cherokee also integrates state-of-the-art active safety measures. These cutting-edge features make everyday driving a whole lot easier. For example, the the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera helps you glide into any parking spot effortlessly. The ParkView display shows dynamic gridlines, so you navigate with precision. This system pairs beautifully with the ParkSense Front and Rear Park Assist Systems, which guide you in and out of parallel parking spots with ease. The system uses tiny sensors to locate the distance to nearby bumpers, which means you can park safely and quickly!
