Cadillac Escalade Safety Features

The cabin is also available with Automatic Seat Belt Tightening in every row and a standard Buckle to Drive feature that prevents you from shifting out of Park until the driver's seat belt has been fastened. To give you even more peace of mind, rear child security door locks come standard, too.
In addition to all the safety features inside, the Cadillac Escalade focuses on where the rubber meets the road, too. With both a Tire Fill Alert and a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, you'll be driving on a good set of wheels every time.
Driver Assist Technology
