The most dangerous 2017 cars in the US market

Fiat 500 L

The Italian compact that was the first model to carry the nomenclature 500 outside the renovated Cinquecento was not only not very attractive visually but also a car not very sure.

Although in four of the five crash tests he scored excellent, in the frontal overlapping test where the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) scored poor. To this was added a not very good comfort at the time of driving .

Lincoln MKS

It is difficult to think that a luxury car could appear on a list like this, but it really happens and the culprit in this case is the Lincoln MKS (although many do not consider it a luxury car that can fight with the major brands of the segment) . Like the Fiat 500 L, the MKS problem was the small overlap frontal crash test where it received the worst rating possible in addition to its frontal crash prevention system is basic. We could add the bad reliability of the car but it does not have much to do with the most dangerous car issue of 2017.

Dodge Journey

You guessed it, the Dodge Journey also suffered in the crash test of small frontal overlap and received the worst possible qualification in that line where the structure was very damaged to the height of the legs and affected very much its qualification, returning to the familiar SUV one of The most dangerous cars of 2017.

Cadillac Escalade

 

I know what you’re thinking, but the Cadillac Escalade did not fail in that test. Big cars can give us a false sense of security , and where the huge luxury SUV fails is in the strength of its roof when it overturns. This was tested by the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Association) and awarded three stars out of five.
