The Dodge Journey has received five-star ratings from the U.S. government's safety crash test program.

 
BRAMPTON - The all-new 2009 Dodge Journey earned five-star ratings for driver- and front-passenger protection in a frontal crash along with five-star driver and rear passenger ratings for side impact protection, the highest ratings in the U.S. government's safety crash test program.

The all-new 2009 Dodge Journey is now available at local Dodge dealers.

"The all-new 2009 Dodge Journey features the latest in safety and security features providing our customers the peace of mind they want and expect", said Larry Lyons, Vice President, Car and Minivan Product Team.

"Safety is a top priority and the Dodge Journey delivers with advance multi-stage front driver and passenger air bags, front-seat-mounted thorax air bags, all-row supplemental side-curtain air bags and a mid-size crossover first integrated child booster seat."

When it comes to safety and security, Dodge Journey employs a two-fold approach: conventional features including pretensioning and load-limiting seat belt retractors and supplemental air bags are combined with accident-avoidance features including an Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) and Brake Assist.

The all-new 2009 Dodge Journey is a global vehicle that offers a unique combination of versatility and flexibility in a youthful, sporty package.
