Brakes, Airbags, and Other Safety | ||
Rear disc brakes. | ||
If active, automatically move forward when the vehicle is rear-ended. Note: becoming less common. | ||

Automatically pulse the brakes in hard stops to prevent wheels from locking up, making it possible to brake and steer at the same time. | ||
When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | ||
Mandatory, in all cars. | ||
Deploys extended duration side curtain airbags when the vehicle rolls over. Usually included on tall vehicles. Rare on others. | ||
Airbags contained just above the window level. Except in cars without a rear seat usually cover first and second row. | ||
Selectively applies the brakes to prevent excessive understeer or oversteer (spinning). | ||
Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | ||
When a drive wheel slips, it is braked and/or engine power is reduced, restoring traction. | ||

Flaps mounted behind two to four wheels, to protect the body from mud and rocks. | ||
Can be small lip spoiler or a larger raised spoiler. | ||
