Rear Seat Reminder
Let’s face it, busy doesn’t begin to encompass the lifestyles of modern people. There are groceries to pick up, appointments to make, jobs to rush to after dropping the kids off, and between all that you have to find some time to be social, too. Forgetting things is inevitable. The Rear Seat Reminder is a tool that can help minimize the number of things forgotten. When the car is turned off under certain circumstances, the reminder will flash and chime five times while a message to check the rear seat is displayed in the Driver Information Center.
Teen Driver Mode
If you’re planning to start teaching your teenager to drive soon, you’ll appreciate the standard Teen Driver Mode on the Acadia. It gives you the ability to set limits on features like volume and automatically activates certain safety and driver assistance features. It even creates an in-vehicle report card that can help you understand the areas where your student driver needs further instruction.
Safety Alert Seat
The GMC Safety Alert Seat is a safety measure that uses vibrations on the left or right side of the driver’s seat to inform drivers of a possible collision. The feature can help drivers quickly take measures to avoid an accident.
