TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS.
Embedded sensors continuously monitor the
pressure in the tires and will immediately notify
the driver when levels drop below the minimum
acceptable level.
HEATED POWER EXTERIOR MIRRORS.
Melt snow
and ice off your sideview mirrors as you warm up
your interior. This available feature also helps to
keep your mirrors icicle-free as you drive.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC).
5
An advanced system designed to assist drivers in
maintaining control of their vehicle at all times. It
integrates a four-wheel antilock brake system
(ABS) with hydraulic Brake Assist, all-speed
traction control, and Electronic Roll Mitigation
(ERM) to constantly monitor driver input against
the vehicle’s actual course. When needed, the
system automatically helps provide braking to
the appropriate wheels and reduces engine
power when overly sharp steering and/or
impending wheel lift is detected.
ADVANCED MULTISTAGE FRONT AND
SIDE-CURTAIN AIR BAGS.
6
These air bags
provide nearly instantaneous occupant
protection by matching air bag output to
crash severity.
SUPPLEMENTAL SEAT-MOUNTED SIDE AIR
BAGS.
6
Each side air bag has its own sensor to
autonomously trigger the air bag on the side
where the impact occurs. Available.
HALOGEN HEADLAMPS AND FOG LAMPS.
These bright sources of light improve down-road
visibility at night or during inclement weather.
HILL START ASSIST (HSA).
This system works
to prevent Patriot from rolling away when starting
the vehicle on an up- or downhill gradient. It holds
the vehicle stationary for two seconds after the
driver’s foot is removed from the brake pedal,
allowing time to apply the throttle. Standard on
manual transaxle models, and included with the
Trail Rated®
Freedom Drive II® Off-Road Group.
FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS.
7
In the event of a rear-end collision, the head
restraints move forward and upward to
decrease the space between the headrest
and occupant’s head, thereby helping to
reduce the chance of injury.
SiriusXM TRAVEL LINK.
2
As packaged with the
available Uconnect
®
430N radio, TRAVEl lINk
provides access to detailed information on
accidents, traffic flow, construction, road closures,
and more. Alternative route guidance and mapping
let you easily avoid troubled areas to help you
arrive safely and on time.
