Buick Safety Features

When families around Columbus, OH start shopping for their next vehicle, safety is often the first thing that comes to mind. At Twins Buick GMC, we know that peace of mind matters just as much as style or performance. That’s why Buick has invested heavily in advanced driver-assistance technologies designed to protect you, your loved ones, and everyone else on the road. Whether you’re commuting from Dublin, OH, heading to a soccer game in Westerville, OH, or simply running errands around town, Buick safety features are built to keep you confident behind the wheel.

Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning

Ever drift too close to the edge of your lane while adjusting the radio or checking the mirrors? Lane Keep Assist, when paired with Lane Departure Warning, helps. This system gently nudges the steering wheel to keep you centered, while the warning alerts you if you’re unintentionally crossing lane lines. It’s not intrusive—it’s supportive, like a co-pilot reminding you to stay focused.

Forward Collision Alert

Traffic can be unpredictable, especially during rush hour in Columbus. Forward Collision Alert scans the road ahead and warns you if a possible collision is detected. It’s like having an extra set of eyes that never blink. The system gives you time to react, whether that means slowing down or steering clear.

Side Bicyclist Alert

Cyclists are everywhere these days, and that’s a good thing for the community—but it can make driving more challenging. Buick’s Side Bicyclist Alert helps you detect riders approaching from the side, reducing the risk of accidents when changing lanes or turning. It’s a thoughtful feature that demonstrates Buick's understanding of real-world driving conditions.

Automatic Emergency Braking

Sometimes, even the quickest reflexes aren’t enough. Automatic Emergency Braking steps in when a collision seems imminent, and you haven’t applied the brakes fast enough. By automatically activating the brakes, the system can help reduce the severity of an impact—or avoid it altogether. It’s one of those features you hope you’ll never need, but you’ll be glad it’s there if you do.

Rear Cross Traffic Braking

Backing out of a busy parking lot in Westerville or Dublin can feel like a guessing game. Rear Cross Traffic Braking takes the stress out of it. Sensors detect vehicles approaching from either side, and if you don’t react quickly enough, the system applies the brakes to prevent a collision. It’s convenient in crowded shopping centers or tight neighborhood streets.

Following Distance Indicator

Tailgating isn’t just annoying—it’s dangerous. Buick’s Following Distance Indicator helps you maintain a safe gap between your Buick and the one ahead. Displaying the time gap in seconds gives you a clear picture of whether you’re too close. It’s a simple tool, but it makes a big difference in everyday driving.
