Safe driving begins with the ability to avoid accidents, which is why our engineers are so passionate about utilizing the latest and most advanced safety systems. Forte is equipped with a range of safety systems designed to help minimize injuries when an accident is unavoidable. Click the symbols to learn more.
ABS helps to provide greater vehicle control when stopping in difficult conditions like wet or slippery roads.
It monitors and assists in the control of key vehicle functions to provide improved directional stability, which helps you maintain better control in difficult driving situations.
The advanced Traction Control System can sense wheel spin during acceleration. When it does, it uses a combination of engine power and brake force to transfer power to the wheels that have the most traction, providing both increased control and enhanced responsiveness.
BAS operates based on the force that’s applied to the brake pedal. If you need to brake aggressively, it helps control the stop by applying the necessary braking pressure.
EBD senses the vehicle’s load and weight distribution, then applies the necessary braking pressure at each wheel. This helps to enhance your control.
The monitoring system includes air-pressure sensors located at each wheel. If a tire reaches a specified low air pressure, a warning light alerts you.
NOTE: Even with the Tire-Pressure Monitoring System, always check your tire pressure on a regular basis.
The advanced front airbag system monitors the severity of an impact, the presence of a front passenger and seat-belt use, and then controls airbag inflation accordingly.

In the event of certain rear collisions, the active headrests move up and forward, helping to reduce the likelihood of neck injury.
In the event of certain collisions, pretensioners are designed to tighten the seatbelts to help to reduce the likelihood of injury.
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) make it easy and convenient to secure child seats.
