Safety

Standard safety features include side-impact airbags for the front seats, an electronic stability system and active head restraints for the front seats. Side curtain airbags are also standard, but they only deploy over the first and second rows even though the Tribeca can have an optional third-row seat.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration awarded the Tribeca five stars for its frontal crash-test performance. That's the highest rating possible and indicates a 10 percent or less chance of serious injury.
