When you drive a Honda, you trust your vehicle to get you wherever you need to go safe and sound. Of all the functions and features in any Honda, the state-of-the-art safety features are among the most important. Honda takes pride in their commitment to your security while on the road, and continues to innovate new and unique solutions to keep you safer while getting from point A to point B.

Warning Systems

Honda has led the automobile industry in safety features designed to predict and prevent collisions for years. Our unique suite of warning and security systems can improve driver safety, even at night or in poor weather conditions. Try as we might, sometimes distractions happen while you’re on the road. That’s why it’s important to know when your vehicle needs correction immediately, not when you’re on the brink of a collision. Whether it’s on the highway or on a local street, your Honda will inform you with visual and audio cues when you’re approaching a slowed or stopped vehicle in front of you thanks to the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system. In addition to these warnings, the Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS) can assist in applying the brakes when approaching a vehicle in front of you. Long drives, poor weather and late nights can make for dangerous driving conditions. Your Honda has it covered with the new Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) systems. Sometimes, other vehicles may appear in unexpected places or distractions can remove you temporarily from your lane. The LDW system alerts you immediately upon detecting any lane drift to protect both you and others on the road. With the RDM system, drivers can feel safer knowing they’ll receive audio and visual warnings if they drift too near the edge of the road without a turn signal. If you’re dozing or just needed a reminder to correct your path or use your signal, the steering wheel vibrations can help you drive more defensively. Without any driver input, your Honda will provide minor steering assistance to remain on the road and apply the brakes to prevent any deviation.

Built-In Safety

Honda safety is more than just the fancy technological advances intended to help you drive defensively. Each Honda you drive comes equipped with the strong frame and underlying safety features that make it worthy of the 2017 IIHS Top Safety Pick title. The body of all 2017 Honda vehicles offers a unique ACE™ Structure that protects all occupants and cargo from frontal collisions by distributing kinetic energy more evenly across the frame. When frontal impact occurs, your Honda ensures you and your loved ones remain as safe as possible. Front seat belts will immediately retract firmly to the chest in a frontal collision.
