FRONT CRUSH ZONE

In a serious frontal impact,

the front sections of Sierra

1500’s hydroformed frame

rails are designed to crumple

in a controlled fashion to

help dissipate crash energy

before it reaches the

passenger compartment.

DUAL-STAGE

FRONTAL AIRBAGS

†

To help reduce your risk of injury,

Sierra 1500’s airbags adjust

their force of deployment based

on the severity of the impact.

In addition, sensors in the front-

passenger seat measure the

weight of the seat’s occupant

and disable the front airbag

automatically if it detects a

child or a smaller adult.

SIDE-IMPACT HEAD

CURTAIN AIRBAGS

†

In certain side impacts and

rollover situations, the head

curtain side-impact airbags

unfurl from the roof rail and

act like a protective curtain for

the occupants of the outboard

seats in both rows.

SEAT-MOUNTED

SIDE-IMPACT AIRBAGS

†

Driver and right front-

passenger seats are ﬁtted with

seat-mounted side-impact

airbags for additional thorax

and pelvic protection.

LATCH

Standard in the rear seats of

all Extended Cab and Crew

Cab models, the LATCH (Lower

Anchors and top Tethers for

Children) system makes it

easier to ensure that child seats

are securely installed.

REAR PARKING ASSIST

Standard on Sierra Denali

and available on Sierra SLE

and SLT Extended and Crew

Cab models, the rear parking

assist system uses ultrasonic

waves to detect obstacles

behind the truck and alerts

you to their presence via

audible signals.

Administration, July 2007.

† A NOTE ON CHILD SAFETY: Always use safety belts and proper child restraints, even in vehicles equipped with

airbags. Even with the Passenger Sensing System, children are safer when properly secured in a rear seat. Never

place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat of any vehicle equipped with an active airbag. Refer to the Sierra

Owner’s Manual and child safety seat instructions for more information. Airbag inﬂation can cause severe injury or

death to anyone too close to the airbag when it deploys. Be sure every occupant is properly restrained.
