Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System
VSA helps to stabilise the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
When VSA activates, you may notice that the
engine does not respond to the accelerator.
You may also notice some noise from the
hydraulic system. You will also see the
indicator blink.

VSA Operation

Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System
The VSA may not function properly if tyre type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tyre, and the air pressures as specified.
When the VSA system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, there may be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehicle checked by a dealer
immediately.

come on after re-connecting the battery. Drive a
short distance at more than 20 km/h (12 mph). The
indicator should go off. If it does not, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.
VSA cannot enhance stability in all driving situations
and does not control the entire braking system. You
still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate
for the conditions and always leave a sufficient
margin of safety.
