Safety Is The Answer!

There are many different things that you should look for in buying a new vehicle. My main two things that I like to check out are the safety features and the reliability of a vehicle. Most vehicles, like the ones sold at Volkswagen Phoenix Dealers and Chevrolet Dealer Dayton, have many safety features. Even some used cars, which could be found at Bradenton Cars For Sale, carry some/most of these safety features. Ones to look for are;

*Driver and Front Passenger Airbags-They provide effective protection for the head and upper torso area preventing contact with the steering wheel and dash.

*Driver and Passenger Side Airbags-These are designed to help protect your head and chest in a crash involving the side of the vehicle.

*Side Curtain Airbags-These are used to protect your head from hitting the window or frame pillar in a side impact collision.

*Anti-Lock Brakes-It is a safety system that prevents the wheels on a vehicle from locking up while braking.

*Electronic Stability Control-This a computerized technology that improves the safety of a vehicle by detecting and minimizing skids. It will also detect the loss of steering control which will in turn make the vehicle automatically apply the brakes to help steer the driver where they are intending to go. Some systems also reduce the engine power until the driver gets the vehicle back under control.

*Engine Brake Assist-In the event of sharp braking, it allows extra assistance which amplifies the braking pressure and reduces the stopping distance to a minimum.

*Electronic Brakeforce Distribution-This is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a vehicles brakes based on the road conditions and speed. It can apply more or less braking pressure to each wheel in order to maximize stopping power while maintaining control.

As for reliability, most vehicles offer the same perks, unless your buying a really pricey vehicle. Many manufacturers offer three year/36,000 bumper-bumper warranty and a five year/60,000 mile powertrain limited warranty. Some will offer corrosion protection for five years or 60,000 miles. Now a more pricier vehicle, lets say a Cadillac, they will offer a more elaborate variety of warranties. I know on the 2011 Cadillac CTS, they offer four year/50,000 mile basic warranty , five year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty along with roadside assistance. They have a Premium Care Maintenance package that will cover scheduled oil changes, tire rotations, replacement of engine and cabin air filters along with a multi-point vehicle inspection after 4 years of 50,000 miles. Which all of that is wonderful if you can afford it.

It isn't easy to pick out a new car that will suit you in every way, but these are just a few things that you should check out before making that big purchase.
