These vehicles are among the cream of the crop for mid-sized cars in terms of safety performance. |
They are very effective. Research around the world shows that they cut down on speeding. |
They're more likely than younger drivers to die in their crashes because of their fragility and their age. They're more likely to die in a crash a younger person would survive. |
This is a really good resource for consumers who want to find out what's been recalled by a manufacturer but don't know where to look. |

You can never repeal the laws of physics, and a smaller, lighter vehicle is always at a disadvantage no matter how many safety features are built into it. |
