Volkswagen Driver-Assistance Overview
If you’re in the market for a new car, these new Volkswagen models have a variety of Driver-Assistance features to help keep you and your family safe. Continue reading to learn more about these available features.
Volkswagen Safety System Highlights
Front Assist
Front Assist offers a variety of features to ensure you have every possible opportunity to avoid or mitigate a collision. Forward Collision Warning with Pedestrian Monitoring alerts you to possible collisions by emitting an audible and visual alert. Autonomous Emergency Braking increases the brake sensitivity to help you stop quickly and can even be applied automatically.
Blind Spot Monitor uses these same sensors to identify vehicles traveling in your blind spots. This feature will alert you of a potential collision by activating an indicator light on your side mirror. If no response is detected, Autonomous Emergency Braking can be automatically activated.
Parking Steering Assistant (Park Assist)
Park Assist utilizes sensors to identify a parallel or perpendicular parking spot that can accommodate the size of your car. Once a spot is identified, remove your hands from the wheel as the Volkswagen carefully steers itself into the parking space. Just follow the prompts to accelerate, brake, and shift for a perfect parking job every time.
Lane Departure Warning (Lane Assist)
With Lane Departure Warning, your Volkswagen is equipped to read lane markings and discern if you begin to drift unintentionally into another lane. If the sensors determine you may be drifting and the turn signals aren’t activated, the system will gently countersteer you safely back to your lane. Certain Volkswagen models even provide a warning vibration in the steering wheel to prompt you to return to your lane.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Take your foot off the brake and enjoy an afternoon cruise down the highway with Adaptive Cruise Control. Rather than constantly having to brake and reset the speed as traffic slows, Adaptive Cruise Control adjusts your speed to maintain a safe distance behind the car ahead of you and will return to the preset speed once traffic gets moving again.

Here Are 4 New Year’s Resolutions for Your Car
As you eagerly await the year ahead, don’t forget to consider ways to keep your car running at peak performance. Continue reading to find four resolutions for your car in 2020.
New Year’s Resolutions for Your Car
Start a Cleaning Schedule
It’s no surprise that cars get dirty. What may surprise you is how dirt and grime can eventually lead to damage which can depreciate the value of your car. Commit to making a carwash a part of your cleaning routine. If you’re constantly on the go, take advantage of an affordable car wash in your town that charges a small monthly fee for limitless washing and access to vacuums. Your car will glisten and you’ll have one less thing on your to-do list. Or make an appointment at your local VW dealer for a thorough detailing.
Get Ahead of the Game
The check engine light wasn’t designed to be a reminder for your car’s next tune up. Instead of waiting for expensive repairs or disasters to strike, take the proactive approach and create a routine maintenance schedule. Many parts of your car including brake pads, fluids, spark plugs, and batteries need regular maintenance and replacement. Failure to do so could result in damage to your car or could even place you or your passengers in danger. Schedule an inspection today and leave unnecessary stress behind this year. Be sure to take advantage of any deals and coupons when you go.
Be Proactive With Deadlines
Few things are less enjoyable to find in the mail than a final notice for unpaid vehicle registration fees. The good news is that you know exactly when registration is coming due this year because there’s a sticker on your license plate that says so. Check the date and make a note on your calendar one month prior to take your car in for your annual inspection or emissions testing if necessary. That way, all you have to do when the notice comes in is pay the fee and wait for your new sticker to arrive.
Consider a New Ride
Maybe 2020 is the year you decide to buy a new or used car. If that sounds like something you’re interested in, be sure to start your year off by visiting Zimbrick Volkswagen of Madison. We have an impressive inventory of new cars for sale in Madison, WI. We also have plenty of used cars for sale as well. Stop by our dealership to learn more or give us a call today to schedule your test drive.
Tips For Winter Driving in Madison, WI
Winter driving, especially in colder areas like Madison, WI, can often be hazardous. Some dangers include:
- Cold weather, which can impact your vehicle’s mechanical performance .
- Inclement weather like snow, sleet and heavy rain, which can make the roads icy and difficult to drive on. In fact, icy roads leads to roughly 156,164 car crashes every year.
- Heavy road traffic during the holidays, which increases the odds of a vehicle collision.
This makes it essential to be prepared before heading out to drive during the winter months in Madison, WI. Let’s take a look at the ways you can stay safe safe on the road this winter.
How to Safely Drive in the Winter
- Winterize your car before hitting the road — Steps to winterizing your vehicle include the following tasks:
-
-
- Oil change
- Battery testing
- Wiper blade replacement
- Wiper fluid and antifreeze refills
- Check tire pressure regularly
- Test brakes and replace brake pads if needed
- Invest in snow tires
- Check 4-wheel or all-wheel drive system
-
- Store a winter safety kit in your vehicle — Keep emergency supplies in your vehicle, including:
-
-
- Jumper cables
- Tire jack
- Tire pressure gauge
- Portable tire inflator
- Road flares
- Blankets
- Flashlights
- Non-perishable snacks
- Water
-
- Drive slowly, especially when accelerating and braking — Prevent skidding by slowly accelerating and braking.
- Don’t tailgate — You should never tailgate, but it’s especially important to leave ample room between your car and the vehicle in front of you when the road is slippery.
- Avoid stopping a lot, if possible — Starting and stopping can often lead to skidding, so the more you can avoid it, the better. To help avoid this, try slowing down well before you reach the traffic light.
- Don’t hit the gas too much while going up hills — Prevent your wheels from spinning by applying even pressure to the accelerator when going up hills.
- Don’t stop while going up hills — It can be very difficult to start after stopping on icy roads, especially when going uphill.
- Navigate snow plows safely — Snow plows are an important part of winter safety on the road. It may be tempting to try to quickly pass them, but this can be dangerous for both parties. Stay behind the snow plow at a safe distance.

5 Signs Your Vehicle Needs New Tires
Tires are the point of contact between your vehicle and the road beneath it. As such, a good set of tires keeps you safe, ensures proper handling, and helps your vehicle run as smoothly and efficiently as possible. Over time, your tires will succumb to general wear and tear, making it crucial for you to have them replaced. As you consider the need for new tires, keep these warning signs in mind.
Does Your Vehicle Need New Tires?
Your tires are bald.
Without tread on your tires, your vehicle is an accident waiting to happen. Tread is crucial for turning, braking, and more. The bottom line: If your tires have become bald, you need to have them replaced urgently.
You’ve noticed your vehicle shaking.
It’s perfectly normal for your vehicle to shudder as you go over rocky or uneven terrain. This can happen even with a brand-new set of tires. If your vehicle shakes all the time, however, that’s a good indicator that your tires are going out.
You’ve been driving on a spare tire.
It’s smart to have a spare tire handy, allowing you to get back on the road following a flat. Spare tires are meant as short-term solutions, though, not lasting fixes. If you’re driving on a spare, make an appointment to have a more robust tire put on.
Your tire wear is uneven.
One of the most important steps in routine vehicle maintenance is having your tires rotated. This prevents against uneven levels of wear. If you do have uneven wear on your tires, that’s something to address at our tire center.
Your tires are visibly damaged.
Do you see gouges or cracks in your sidewalls? If so, then your tires may have had their integrity compromised. It’s probably a good idea to have them replaced sooner rather than later.
Don’t Put Off Getting New Tires for Your VW
It cannot be overstated how important tires are for vehicle safety and performance. If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s time to have your tires replaced. Contact our service center to learn more about tire maintenance.

A number of driver-assistance technologies can be found in the Golf GTI, including autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic hill hold, stability/traction control, and post-collision braking.
Moreover, many of the advanced safety features have trickled their way down into the base model for 2019 and the Golf GTI earned IIHS “Top Safety Pick” status.
