Local Long Island Volkswagen Dealership Educates Their Customers on the 2012 VW Passat Safety Technology

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Long Island, New York, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) February 24, 2012 -- The 2012 VW Passat is continuing its safety success from last year, when it was named a 2011 IIHS Top Safety Pick. Legend Volkswagen on Long Island is pleased to announce that the 2012 VW Passat’s safety technology is available at their dealership, providing protection before, during, and after potential accidents.

To help prevent an accident from ever occurring, the 2012 VW Passat uses several different safety features. One of these features is Electronic Stability Control, which helps adjust oversteering or understeering to keep the vehicle on the road when driving around sharp turns or corners. The 2012 Passat’s Anti-lock Braking System with Hydraulic Brake Assist also keeps the vehicle on the road by helping prevent the brakes from locking up during emergency braking.

If an accident should occur, the 2012 VW Passat has safety features to help keep everyone on board safe. The 2012 Passat’s B-Pillar design utilizes high-pressure steel to increase the rigidity of the safety cage to lower the impact on passengers inside. On the front-end, crumple zones also help absorb impact energy before it reaches the passengers inside during a collision.

After a potential accident, peace of mind can still exist with the 2012 VW Passat’s Intelligent Crash Response System. This system will unlock the doors, turn off the power to the fuel pump, and turn on the hazard lights immediately after a certain severity of crash is detected and airbags have deployed.

Drivers who would like to experience the 2012 VW Passat’s safety technology firsthand should visit Legend Volkswagen on Long Island. Their friendly staff will be happy to set their customers up with a test drive and answer any questions they may have.
