When it comes to safety, the 2008 Chrysler Pacifica is tops, scoring consistently high on crash tests and providing drivers with the security they deserve and desire.

With intuitive safety features, the Chrysler Pacifica includes side curtain airbags, a driver-side knee airbag, and anti-lock brakes with brake assist, according to Edmunds.com. It is no wonder then that this 2008 Chrysler performed well in both frontal and side-impact crash tests, scoring five stars. Likewise, the Institute for Highway Safety gave an earlier model of the Pacifica a rating of "good for frontal-offset crash protection."

For additional safety, a rear backup camera is available.

High marks on crash test ratings and a confident handling experience put this one on the top of the list.

Conclusion

The 2008 Chrysler Pacifica is a vehicle so well-equipped with safety features, you can feel confident toting the kids around in it.
