Yukon surrounds you with safety,
before, during and, thanks to
OnStar, even after a collision. With
wide front and rear tracks for solid
stability and advanced electronic
chassis control technology like
StabiliTrak, Yukon is a remarkably
responsive vehicle. Its body- on -
frame configuration and rigid body
structure are designed to offer
impressive frontal, off-set and roll-
over crash performance.
AIR BAG systems
2
Yukon's dual-stage front air bags
feature a Passenger Sensing Sys-
tem. It uses a sensor within the
front passenger seat to detect the
weight of the occupant. Under a
certain weight, the system auto-
matically turns off the air bag.
Head curtain side air bags with
rollover protection function like a
protective curtain, unfolding from
the roof rail on each side. Activated
by side-impact and rollover sensors,
each curtain includes air bag
sections for outboard front, second-
row and third-row passengers.
For 2010, all models except the
Yukon Hybrid (but including the
Yukon Denali Hybrid) include side-
impact air bags to provide thorax
and pelvis protection for both the
driver and front-seat passenger.
