StabiliTrak

®

System

The vehicle has a vehicle stability
enhancement system called
StabiliTrak. It is an advanced
computer controlled system that
assists with directional control of the
vehicle in difficult driving conditions.

StabiliTrak activates when the
computer senses a difference
between the intended path, and the
direction the vehicle is actually
traveling. StabiliTrak selectively
applies braking pressure at any one
of the vehicle's brakes to help steer
the vehicle in the intended direction.

StabiliTrak is on automatically
whenever the vehicle is started. To
assist with directional control of the
vehicle, the system should always
be left on.

TCS/StabiliTrak Light

When the stability control system
activates, the TCS/StabiliTrak light
flashes on the instrument panel.
This also occurs when traction
control is activated. A noise may be
heard or vibration may be felt in the
brake pedal. This is normal.
Continue to steer the vehicle in
the intended direction.

If there is a problem detected
with StabiliTrak, SERVICE
STABILITRAK is displayed on the
Driver Information Center (DIC).
See

Ride Control System Messages

on page 5

. When this message

is displayed and/or the TCS/
StabiliTrak light comes on and stays
on, the vehicle is safe to drive but
the system is not operational.
Driving should be adjusted
accordingly.
