Safety Technology in the Canyon

With how much time we spend on the roads around Missouri Valley, it’s comforting to know that the GMC Canyon provides an expansive range of standard and available safety technology. Once you enter the vehicle, the Buckle to Drive feature prevents the vehicle from being shifted out of park until the driver’s seat belt is buckled. The safety technology in the Canyon ensures you have peace of mind and confidence on the road with capabilities such as: 

• Teen Driver Technology – Unique to GMC and Chevy vehicles, the Teen Driver safety system allows for customizable vehicle settings to encourage safe driving. It lets you set a speed alert and volume limit and even creates an in-vehicle report card to monitor teen driving history. 
• Forward Collision Alert – This feature alerts you when you’re following a vehicle too closely on Missouri Valley streets to help avoid a collision.
• Automatic Emergency Braking – If a front-end collision is imminent, this feature applies the emergency brake to mitigate or lessen the impact. 
• Following Distance Indicator – The following distance of the vehicle in front of you is displayed in seconds to indicate when you’re following a vehicle too closely.  
• Front Pedestrian Braking – This driver-assistive feature monitors the area around the vehicle for pedestrians or cyclists in the roadway and applies the brake as necessary. 
• Rear Pedestrian Alert/Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Braking – When reversing, this feature alerts you to pedestrians or vehicles crossing behind you and can apply a hard emergency brake to prevent a collision.   
• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure – Lane-keeping technology is a standard safety assurance in the GMC Canyon. This feature activates when no turn signal or steering wheel activity is detected and prevents unintentional lane drifting by applying gentle steering inputs. 
• Front and Rear Park Assist – The parking assist feature provides distance alerts to nearby obstacles to help you park more accurately and safely.
• Blind Zone Steering Assist – When moving into a lane, the steering assist feature gives a gentle nudge to prevent collisions with vehicles in your blind spot.
• Intellibeam Auto High Beams – To increase your visibility, this safety assurance feature in the GMC Canyon turns on the high beams depending on light conditions, vehicle speed, and other vehicles nearby.
• 10 Available Camera Views – The latest Canyon includes up to 10 camera views, including front and rear underbody cameras, to enhance visibility when towing or exploring the trails around Lincoln.
• OnStar and Connected Services – With your purchase of a new Canyon, you have access to three years of OnStar and GMC Connected Services for emergency assistance, an in-vehicle wi-fi hotspot, and more.
