HEAD CURTAIN SIDE-IMPACT AIR BAGS
3
These air bags deploy from the
roof rail like a protective curtain for outboard passengers and can be
activated by either rollover sensors or side-impact sensors.
SIDE-IMPACT AIR BAGS
3
To help protect the thorax and pelvic regions of the
driver and outside front passenger in a side-impact collision, Terrain
includes standard side-impact air bags mounted on the driver and outside
front-passenger seats.
ELECTRONIC CHILD SAFETY LOCKS To prevent young children from opening
the rear doors unexpectedly, Terrain includes a one-touch electronic safety
door lock switch. Simply pushing this button in the center console sends an
electronic signal to the rear doors, blocking interior door handle function. The
button is backlit in amber when the doors are locked and turns to red when
unlocked to help you determine the locks are deactivated.
FORWARD COLLISION ALERT AND LANE DEPARTURE WARNING These
systems, available on SLT-2 models, use sophisticated digital imaging
technology to help you avoid a crash. Forward Collision Alert provides an
audible and visual signal if you are rapidly approaching another vehicle and it
appears that a collision may be imminent. Lane Departure Warning alerts you
if you happen to wander from your lane without using your turn signal.
LATCH CHILD SEAT ANCHORING SYSTEM Make it easier to properly install a
child seat. LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Top tethers for CHildren. It
means that a LATCH-equipped child seat will install to specially designed
retainer hooks in your Terrain. LATCH also enables a child seat top tether strap
to be attached that helps limit movement in a forward crash to help reduce the
chance of injury.
REINFORCED STEEL SAFETY CAGE DESIGN Terrain’s robust body-frame
integral structure is engineered to help maintain the integrity of the
passenger compartment in the event of a collision.
STABILITRAK STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM To help you stay in control when
the road is loose, snowy, icy, wet or uneven, StabiliTrak uses a network of
vehicle sensors to monitor how your Terrain is responding to your steering and
braking commands. If the system determines your vehicle is not responding
properly, it can pulse the brakes or reduce engine power to help you stay on
the path being steered.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
4
Properly inflated tires are
important to your comfort, vehicle control and economy. This system uses
tiny sensors inside the wheel to “broadcast” tire pressure to your vehicle,
which alerts you to their status and inflation level through the Driver
Information Center. If you subscribe to OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics, this
information is part of the monthly e-mail update. If you have the RemoteLink
app for your iPhone,® you can check this status instantly.

VEHICLE SECURITY
STOLEN VEHICLE ASSISTANCE If your Terrain is ever stolen, OnStar can help
to locate it after verification with law enforcement. OnStar can use built-in
GPS technology to help to locate it, prevent it from restarting with Remote
Ignition Block or, if the vehicle is in use, engage the Stolen Vehicle Slowdown
technology to help police recover it quickly and safely.
ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
1
If the unexpected happens on the road—you’re
stranded, run out of gas or have a flat tire—one push of the OnStar button can
immediately connect you to an Advisor, ready to help you any hour of the day
or night. OnStar can use GPS technology to find your location and connect you
to a service provider. No guessing about where you are or what to do.
REMOTE DOOR UNLOCK It’s happened to everyone. But there is an easy
solution. If you get locked out of your Terrain, OnStar can help. After verifying
your account, an OnStar Advisor can send a signal to your Terrain that usually
unlocks the doors within minutes.
REMOTE HORN AND LIGHTS Say you’re in a large parking area and you just
can’t remember where you parked. Just call the toll-free number and OnStar
can send a remote signal to flash your lights and sound your horn to help you
locate your Terrain.
DRIVER CONFIDENCE
AUTOMATIC CRASH RESPONSE If your Terrain is in a crash, built-in sensors
can automatically send an alert to OnStar. An OnStar Advisor is immediately
connected to your vehicle to help you. Even if you aren’t capable of responding,
the Advisor can use GPS technology to locate you and request that emergency
help is sent right away.
CRISIS ASSIST During severe weather or other natural disasters, OnStar can
offer assistance and help you navigate your way to safety. Just push the red
OnStar emergency button and our specially trained Crisis Assist Team moves
quickly to help you. OnStar can pinpoint your location and provide up-to-date
information from public safety authorities, request that help be sent to you or
even contact family members or loved ones.
EMERGENCY SERVICES LINK If someone in your Terrain needs emergency
help, the OnStar emergency button gives you a priority connection to a
specially trained Advisor at any time, day or night. OnStar uses GPS
technology to pinpoint your location and request police, fire or medical
support be sent to you right away. The Advisor can also stay with you until
help arrives.

DUAL-STAGE FRONTAL AIR BAGS
3
To help reduce the risk of injury to the
driver and front-seat passenger, the Terrain is equipped with two front
dual-stage air bags with the Passenger Sensing System. This feature uses
sensors within the front-passenger seat to detect the weight of an
occupant. If the occupant is under a certain weight, the system turns off
the air bag to protect the occupant.

Roadside service provided by Cross Country.
2
Requires factory-installed remote start.
3
Air bag inflation can
cause severe injury or death to anyone too close to the air bag when it deploys. Always use safety belts and the
correct restraint for your child’s age and size. Even in vehicles equipped with the Passenger Sensing System,
children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat in the appropriate infant, child or booster seat. Never
place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with a passenger air bag. See the
Owner’s Manual and child safety seat instructions for more safety information.
