Liberty has received the highest marks — Five Stars — during front and side crash tests conducted
as part of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s SaferCar.gov program.
(1)
You can head out with
confidence, knowing you’re outfitted with a comprehensive set of safety and security features.
The air bag
(2)
system includes side-curtain and advanced multistage driver and front-passenger
air bags. Liberty’s Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
(3)
integrates a four-wheel antilock brake system
(ABS), all-speed traction control, a Brake Assist system that automatically helps provide quicker
braking power in emergency situations, and Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) that can apply
appropriate braking to necessary wheels when sharp steering actions and/or impending wheel lift
is detected.
The available Trailer Sway Control (TSC), illustrated at right, works in tandem with ESC to help
improve handling in adverse towing conditions caused by crosswinds and traffic. Front-seat
active head restraints
(4)
move forward and upward in the event of a rear-end-collision to decrease
the space between the headrest and occupant’s head, thereby helping to reduce the chance of
injury — a new standard safety feature.

Star ratings are part of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s SaferCar.gov program (safercar.gov).

The Advanced Front
Air Bags in this vehicle are certified to the new Federal regulations for advanced air bags. Children 12 years old and younger
should always ride buckled up in a rear seat. Infants in rear-facing child restraints should never ride in the front seat of a vehicle
with a passenger front air bag. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoulder belts properly.
(3)
No system, no matter
how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited by available
traction, which snow, ice and other conditions can affect. When the ESC warning lamp in the speedometer flashes, the driver
needs to use less throttle and adapt speed and driving behavior to prevailing road conditions. Always drive carefully, consistent
with conditions. Always wear your seat belt.
(4)
Always sit properly with the head restraint properly adjusted. Never place anything
in front of the head restraint.
