Experience Excellent Safety in a Dodge Durango


What do you look for in a new vehicle? Style? Power? Affordability? While you probably said “yes” to all three, one of the biggest things drivers look for in a new car is safety. 


Here are all the safety features (plus other convenient features) available in the Dodge Durango that will give you the confidence you need for the journey ahead. 


Safety That Drives Innovation Forward


The Durango comes with several innovative safety features to give you peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel. These safety features include: 


  • Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop

  • Advanced Brake Tech, which includes Ready-Alert Braking, Rain Brake Support, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, and Advanced Brake Assist

  • Blind Spot Monitoring

  • Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers

  • Electronic Roll Mitigation/Electronic Stability Control 

  • All-Speed Traction Control

  • LaneSense Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist

  • Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking


The available Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking lets you know if you get too close to another vehicle ahead of you. If you do and you fail to respond in time, the system will automatically deploy the brakes for you so your vehicle comes to a complete stop.


With the Electronic Roll Mitigation and Electronic Stability Control, you’ll have additional support to control your steering wheel and the overall motion/direction of your vehicle. Available Blind Spot Monitoring helps you safely transition into another lane by sending audible alerts of any oncoming obstacles. 


An Impressive and Powerful Engine Lineup


Not only does the Durango have incredible safety features, but it has an impressive engine lineup too. These engine styles include:
