SAFETY

Smart features can help you enjoy safe travels. That's why the Buick Encore GX comes standard with Buick Driver Confidence, a suite of advanced safety and driver assistance features.

BUICK DRIVER CONFIDENCE

When you’re navigating city traffic, these standard, integrated active safety technologies are designed to help you drive confidently and help give you peace of mind on the road. Some can even alert you to potential hazards.

FRONT PEDESTRIAN BRAKING

Front Pedestrian Braking can help you avoid or reduce the severity of a front-end collision with a pedestrian it detects directly ahead of you. It provides pedestrian alerts and can even automatically provide hard emergency braking or enhance the driver’s hard braking. The system works at speeds below 50 mph during the daytime. It has limited nighttime and low visibility performance.

FORWARD COLLISION ALERT

Forward Collision Alert can warn you if it detects a potential front-end collision with a vehicle you’re following so you can quickly take action. It can also provide a tailgating alert if you’re following a vehicle much too closely.

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

Automatic Emergency Braking works with Forward Collision Alert to help you avoid or reduce the severity of a front-end collision with a detected vehicle you’re following. This feature works at speeds below 50 mph. Camera technology is used to automatically provide hard emergency braking or enhance the driver’s hard braking.

LANE KEEP ASSIST WITH LANE DEPARTURE WARNING

Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning uses a brief, gentle steering wheel turn to alert you when you may be unintentionally drifting out of detected lane lines, so you can steer to stay safely in your lane. If needed, you may receive additional Lane Departure Warning alerts. System alerts do not occur if you’re using your turn signal or it detects you may be intentionally leaving your lane.

FOLLOWING DISTANCE INDICATOR

Following Distance Indicator displays the gap time in seconds between your vehicle and a detected vehicle you’re following. This can help you decide if you’re following much too closely.

INTELLIBEAM

IntelliBeam® can automatically turn the vehicle’s high-beam headlamps on and off according to surrounding traffic conditions.

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 Owner’s Manual for more important feature limitations and information.

3 YEARS OF ONSTAR FOR ADDED CONFIDENCE

ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE SAFETY & DRIVER ASSISTANCE TECHNOLOGIES

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

This available feature can automatically maintain a driver-selected gap time from the detected vehicle you’re following while you steer. This feature reduces the need to frequently brake and accelerate when you’re driving.

REAR VISION CAMERA

Rear Vision Camera shows you an image of the area directly behind your vehicle when you’re in Reverse at low speeds. This may help you park and avoid nearby objects.

Feature will not function without dealer retrofit. Dealer retrofit not available on all vehicles. See dealer for details.

AUTOMATIC PARKING ASSIST WITH BRAKING

HIGH DEFINITION SURROUND VISION

REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT

Available Automatic Parking Assist with Braking can search for a parallel or perpendicular parking space, then steer and brake your vehicle into that space using limited braking. While the feature steers and tells you when to shift gears, you may need to override and take control.

Available High Definition Surround Vision uses multiple cameras to display a digital overhead image of the area around your vehicle along with Rear Vision Camera or front views. It works at low speeds and may help you park and avoid nearby objects. You can select additional views on your camera display.

Available Rear Cross Traffic Alert can warn you of detected left or right cross traffic behind your vehicle when you’re in Reverse.
