Jenkins Imports reminds us that it’s also time to keep ourselves, as well as the people we love Safe…and Secure. Read about a local family who shares the story of how Volvo saved their life. Volvo Saved My Life.

Safety. It is what Volvo is known for and does best. So why not put you and your family in a Volvo? Volvo has built the most advanced crash test facility in the world to help protect your life. Watch a short video which shows how Volvo tests their cars. If safety is a priority be responsible and drive Volvo! Volvo cars have long been marketed and stressed their historic reputation for solidity and reliability. Volvo continues to provide innovative safety technology and programs to support the reputation.

Safe & Secure Coverage Plan
-Volvo is excited to provide it’s “Best-in-Class Coverage Plan” called Safe & Secure. Safe & secure gives you five years of ownership at next to no cost on all 2012 and 2011 models. The plan offers tremendous value by saving you thousands of dollars on your vehicle repairs, and provides you peace of mind during your ownership experience.

The Safe + Secure Coverage Plan offers you exceptional value and financial security that goes beyond crumple zones and airbags – it’s the security that only Volvo offers.

It’s “Safe” because it’s from Volvo, and it’s “Secure” because you’ll be driving your Volvo virtually worry-free for five years. The Safe + Secure Coverage Plan from Volvo. Because you should feel as secure purchasing a new Volvo, as you do driving one. The Volvo Safe and Secure Coverage Plan is a U.S. specific program and is valid only when repairs are performed at an authorized U.S. Volvo Retailer.

City Safety Feature
-City Safety is a feature that can help drivers avoid rear-end, low speed accidents that often happen in urban environments or slow moving traffic. Statistics reveal that 75 per cent of all reported collisions occur at low speeds of up to 30 km/h (18.7 mph). The Volvo system, called ‘City Safety’, is active up to 30 km/h and keeps a watchful eye on traffic up to six metres in front of the car with the help of an optical radar system integrated into the upper part of the windscreen. If a car in front suddenly brakes or is stationary, the system will automatically pre-charge the brakes to help the driver avoid an accident by slowing down in time, or steering away from a potential collision. However, if a collision is imminent, the system will activate the car’s brakes automatically.
