Chevy Safety Assist is a comprehensive safety package that comes standard on many new Chevrolet models. This suite includes six advanced driver assistance features that help prevent collisions and keep you focused on the road. The technology is designed to alert drivers to potential hazards, avoid accidents, and provide better vehicle control. Here are the key features included in Chevy Safety Assist: 1. Forward Collision Alert This system uses sensors to detect vehicles ahead and alerts you if you're approaching too quickly. If a potential collision is detected, it gives an audible and visual alert, helping you react in time to avoid an accident. 2. Automatic Emergency Braking Automatic Emergency Braking kicks in when a Forward Collision Alert identifies an imminent threat. If the driver doesn’t react fast enough, the system can automatically apply the brakes to reduce the collision's severity or avoid it altogether. 3. Front Pedestrian Braking This feature scans for pedestrians in your path. If a pedestrian is detected and the driver does not take action, the system can automatically apply the brakes to reduce the risk of injury or prevent a collision. 4. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning Drifting out of your lane can be dangerous, especially on highways or busy roads. Lane Keep Assist gently steers your vehicle back into its lane if you start to drift, while Lane Departure Warning alerts you if you unintentionally leave your lane without signaling. 5. Following Distance Indicator Maintaining a safe following distance is critical to avoiding rear-end collisions. This feature helps you keep an appropriate distance from the vehicle ahead by displaying the gap time in seconds, allowing you to adjust accordingly. 6. IntelliBeam Auto High Beam Assist Night driving got easier with IntelliBeam Auto High Beam Assist, which automatically toggles between high and low beams based on surrounding traffic conditions. This ensures you have optimal visibility without blinding oncoming drivers. Why Chevy Safety Assist Matters These advanced features work together to provide an extra layer of protection, giving drivers more confidence and peace of mind. Whether it’s preventing a rear-end collision with automatic emergency braking or keeping you centered in your lane, Chevy Safety Assist supports you. At Crain Chevy of Little Rock, we understand that safety is a top priority for our customers. That’s why we’re proud to offer a wide selection of Chevrolet vehicles equipped with Chevy Safety Assist.

The 2022 Chevy Malibu is a mid-size sedan that combines a head-turning style with an artfully crafted interior. It offers top safety features with a capable and easy-to-use infotainment system and an easy-to-handle enjoyable driving experience. Whether taking a long trip or looking for an affordable family sedan, drivers will find plenty of features to recommend the Malibu. Basics About the 2022 Chevy Malibu The Chevy Malibu was manufactured by Chevrolet from 1964 to 1983 as a mid-size sedan offering rear-wheel drive and as a trim of the Chevelle. In 1997, Chevrolet began manufacturing a new model of the Malibu with front-wheel drive. The Malibu is named after the coastal city in California. Currently, Chevrolet offers four different trims for the Malibu. The L trim was eliminated from the lineup this year. Drivers may choose from the LS, LT, RS, and Premier models. While the LS, LT, and Premier offer a standard chrome-colored grille, the RS comes with a black grille. A Midnight edition is available for those who want a more stylish appearance and like the black badges and emblems. Economical Engine/Transmission Chevrolet offers two different engines this year, both providing plenty of performance and contributing to a smooth and quiet ride. The LS, LT, and RS editions come with a 1.5-liter, 4-cylinder engine combined with a continuously variable transmission and 163-horsepower. For the Premier edition, it offers a powerful 250-horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine with a smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission. Stylish Exterior The Malibu offers seven different colors that will please any driver's taste. With colors like Cherry Red Tintcoat, Mosaic Black Metallic, and Northsky Blue Metallic, the Chevy Malibu gets noticed. Features like dual exhaust on higher-end models, chrome door handles, and stylish aluminum wheels allow the Malibu to make a statement. Well-Designed Interior Drivers love the comfort of the Malibu with its roomy cab and comfortable interior. Drivers may choose from cloth or leather seats in four different interior color schemes. Plenty of leg room in both the front and back seats, as well as a driver seat suited to fit any size driver, means five passengers sit comfortably in this sedan. A big trunk and ample carry-on capacity allow passengers to carry plenty of luggage. Easy-to-Use Technology The Malibu offers a simple and easy-to-use infotainment system that includes features like an 8-inch touchscreen, Apply CarPlay or Android Auto, and the Chevy MyWay app. These features make it easy for drivers and passengers to stay connected whether taking hands-free phone calls, getting message alerts, or listening to favorite playlists. The Chevy Malibu is a safe, comfortable, affordable, and easy-to-drive mid-size sedan designed to please any driver.

Behind the wheel of your Silverado, Trax, or Bolt, your brakes play a crucial role in keeping you safe. Regular brake service from your Chevy dealer is therefore crucial to making sure that your brakes are always in good working order. Our certified Chevrolet technicians perform comprehensive brake systems services and install durable and reliable brake parts to ensure you have the stopping power you need at those crucial moments. How Often Should You Get Routine Brake Service From Your Chevy Dealer? Regular Intervals The brakes on your car should be serviced regularly. Your brakes will work properly and last longer if you schedule regular maintenance by qualified Chevrolet technicians. It is recommended that you have your brake system serviced every 10,000 to 15,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. For more information about the recommended brake fluid replacement intervals and brake system inspections for your Chevy model, refer to your owner's manual, or consult your Chevy technician. Brake Life Factors Different factors determine how often your brakes need to be serviced. Several factors affect brake life, including the frequency and intensity with which you brake, the type of roads you drive on, and brake maintenance. Regular brake maintenance can ensure that a set of quality brakes lasts 60,000 or even 70,000 miles, but lack of maintenance and heavy use can cause your brakes to fail after just 25,000 miles.

To ensure that your Chevy's brakes are working properly and that you are safe on the road, our Chevrolet technicians are trained and experienced to perform thorough brake system inspections, corrections, adjustments, and replacements. During the brake inspection, the technician determines the condition of your car's brake system and determines if brake maintenance is necessary to keep the brakes performing optimally. We will identify brake issues early on and ensure that your vehicle's brakes are working properly by performing the necessary repairs and replacements.
