To turn the system off,
press the TRAC OFF
button located on
the instrument panel
switchbank.
If the system is limiting wheel spin when you press the
button, the message will go off, but the system will
not turn off until there is no longer a current need to limit
wheel spin. The TRAC OFF light will come on to
remind you the system is off. You can turn the system
back on at any time by pressing the button again.
The traction control system warning message should
go off.
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) System
If your vehicle has all-wheel drive (AWD), the AWD
system operates automatically without any action
required by the driver. If the front drive wheels begin to
slip, the rear wheels will automatically begin to drive
the vehicle as required. There may be a slight
engagement noise during hard use but this is normal.
During heavy AWD applications, the engine torque may
be reduced to protect AWD system components. If
the vehicle is exposed to extended heavy AWD usage,
the AWD system will shut itself off to protect the
system from overheating. When the system cools down,
the AWD system will activate itself again automatically;
this cool-down can take up to 20 minutes depending
on outside temperature and vehicle use. See
All-Wheel
Drive Disable Warning Message on page 3-49.
Steering
Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or the system is not functioning, you can steer but
it will take much more effort.
