When you're on the hunt for a new car, there are several factors to consider: price, style, performance, but most of all, safety. If you're smart about it, though, you'll be car shopping at a leading Skokie Dodge dealer, where you know you'll be looking at exceptional vehicles.

That's because the 2012 Dodge Charger and 2012 Chrysler 300 have both earned 5-star safety ratings - the highest possible - from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Both ratings pertain to the cars' front driver and overall vehicle scores. Overall scores include vehicle results in barrier, frontal and side pole performance. Static stability factor was considered in the vehicles' rollover rating, and both cars earned 4-star ratings in rollover tests.

Both the 2012 Charger and 2012 Chrysler 300 have been fitted with adaptive cruise control, a technology that sustains a predetermined distance between vehicles on the road when activated. Both models also feature more than 65 safety and security features such as ready alert braking and rain brake support.

In addition to standard electronic stability control and optional blind-spot monitoring on both vehicles, the Chrysler 300 SafetyTec and Dodge Charger Driver Confidence Group package feature a full, 360-degree perspective and forward collision warning, rear cross path accident-avoidance systems and SmartBeam headlamps as well as adaptive forward lighting on the Chrysler 300.

FieldsChrysler Jeep Dodge is proud to announce that both models were also named Insurance Institute for Highway Safety "Top Safety Picks" earlier this year. Other standout features include eight-speed automatic transmission and Pentastar V-6 engines that achieve 292 horsepower as well as earning the right to claim 31 miles per gallon on the highway.

Safety has always come first with Chrysler, and now there are even more reasons why. Stop in at our dealership today to learn more!
