2008 Buick Enclave Safety Features
Air bags: driver and right-front passenger, dual-stage, frontal and side impact air bags; first-, second- and third-row side-curtain air bags; for outboard passengers with Passenger Sensing System and rollover protection
Air bags help protect the driver and right front-seat passenger in certain collisions by supplementing the protection provided by safety belts. Side-impact air bags for both the driver and right-front passenger help reduce the risk of injury in certain side-impact collisions. Dual-stage front air bags utilize sensors to detect the severity of a crash, and then determine whether the air bags should be deployed and at what level of force.
The Passenger Sensing System automatically switches the right-front passenger frontal air bag on or off based on the passenger’s weight.
Side-curtain air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of head injuries to front-seat and outboard rear-seat occupants on the near side of certain side-impact collisions.
Brakes: four-wheel antilock disc
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.
StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System with Rollover Mitigation
The StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System with Rollover Mitigation helps your vehicle respond to your steering commands. During difficult driving conditions, sensors feed data to an onboard computer that adjusts engine speed and brake pressure to any individual wheel to help keep you on track.
Theft-deterrent system: PASS-Key III engine immobilizer with content theft alarm
As an added security feature, this vehicle has the PASS-Key III theft-deterrent system, which includes a special ignition key with up to three trillion possible code variations. If any attempt is made to start your vehicle without the properly coded key, the starter and fuel injectors are temporarily disabled.
Traction Control: full-range
Traction Control reduces engine power and modulates the brakes to help reduce wheel slip during acceleration on many surfaces.
