While driving a luxury vehicle with all the latest features and driver amenities is enjoyable, all those options are pointless if your vehicle isn't equipped with a reliable safety system. Chrysler has created Chrysler SafetyTec Plus in response: a group of driver assistance safety and security features that protect drivers and passengers on the road. more Advanced Brake Assist Advanced brake assist is one of the Chrysler safety features that automatically increases brake force to mitigate or prevent a collision. It works in combination with the full-speed collision warning with active braking system and gives drivers peace of mind that if they cannot control their vehicle, it will work on their behalf to do it for them. Adaptive Cruise Control With Stop Adaptive cruise control with stop helps maintain a safe vehicle distance within a lane to prevent collisions. It controls the throttle and the brake and can also use force when necessary to activate the brake in the event of a potential collision. Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning With Active Braking The full-speed forward collision warning with an active braking system provides drivers with alerts if they drive too close to a vehicle. It also activates the brakes to prevent them from rear-ending the vehicle in front of them. Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers Rain-sensing windshield wipers may seem to be more of an amenity, but they're important safety features. They automatically activate if the sensors detect rain on the windshield, which gives drivers clear vision and allows for automatic rain clearing. LaneSense Lane Departure Warning With Lane Keep Assist This safety feature provides drivers with alerts, letting them know when they have drifted over the designated lane markers. If drivers don't respond to the alerts, the system will respond on their behalf and adjust their vehicle accordingly. ParkSense Front and Rear Park Assist The ParkSense front and rear park assist system acts as an extra set of eyes at low speeds when parking and alerts drivers so that they don't hit stationary objects when entering or exiting a parking area. Auto High-Beam Headlamp Control This safety feature works by adjusting the brightness of the headlights after the sensors evaluate the surrounding conditions to ensure adequate illumination. It also lowers the glare on the front lighting when a vehicle approaches to prevent any safety hazards. If you want to learn more about the additional safety features available in the new Chrysler vehicles, our team can give you more information and help you explore all the latest models.

Are you looking into buying a new car? Wondering how you can support your purchase financially? Getting car financing at your local Chrysler dealer will ensure that you get something quality. These are just a few benefits that you can expect when you get a car loan. more 1. Financing Is Easy to Get Some types of loans are notoriously difficult to get. Many of them will require that you have a high enough credit score or be willing to put down collateral in case you can't make your monthly payments. But one of the benefits of getting financing for your vehicle is that it's super easy to get. Even people with low credit scores will be able to get a loan, ensuring they get a quality car. 2. Boost Your Credit Score Related to the last point is that a car loan is a fantastic way to boost a low credit score. As you know, low scores will impede your ability to get things like mortgages, other kinds of loans, and even some job opportunities. This is why it's important to find ways to boost your credit score if you have a low one. One of the best ways is to get a loan for your car. Once you've gotten set up with your dealer's financing department, all you need to do is make your monthly payments on time and you'll see a major improvement in your credit score. 3. Afford a Better Car If you're not getting a loan for your car, then you're going to have to pay for your vehicle in cash. You may not have the cash you need to afford the quality vehicle that you've been looking at or the trim level with all the features you want. But if you decide to get financing, you'll find that you're significantly opening your options. Since you're just putting down a portion of the total cost as your down payment, you'll be able to splurge on something a little fancier. 4. Grow Your Savings If you pay for your car in cash, you're likely going to need to dip into your savings. You may end up needing to pull out more than you wish you had to. But if you get a car loan, you'll only need to take out a small chunk as part of your down payment. This allows you to continue growing your savings for other big purchases in the future. Getting a car is exciting, but it's important to be financially wise about your purchase. This is why you should consider getting financing. Visit our financing department today at Ed Martin CDJR.
