2019 Fiesta Hatchback Key Safety Features

The Ford Fiesta, as a family car, is short on active safety features and advanced driver-assists at its default level, and unfortunately does not have any optional safety-related add-ons. All 2019 Ford Fiesta models come with seven standard airbags, including a driver knee airbag. A rearview camera is also standard in all models, along with a front occupant personal safety system, tire pressure monitoring, SOS post-crash alert system, and AdvanceTrac electronic stability control. The Fiesta SE is the only trim that comes standard with cruise control.
