The 2017 Chevrolet Malibu comes with a comprehensive air bag
sensing system that will deploy air bags in a collision from any
direction. In the event of an impact, a high-strength steel safety cage
provides impressive protection.

RESPOND

When the air bags deploy, built-in sensors can automatically alert an OnStar
Advisor (if equipped), who is connected to your Malibu to see if you
need help and will contact emergency services. Even if you don’t
respond, an OnStar Advisor can use GPS technology to pinpoint your
location and request that emergency help is sent right away.

the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The
driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road
conditions at all times. Read the vehicle Owner’s Manual for more
