(RSC)
STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
The AdvanceTrac
威
with RSC system provides stability enhancement
features such as Roll Stability Control
娂
(RSC), Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) and Traction Control (TCS) for certain driving situations.
The system includes an AdvanceTrac
威
with RSC on/off button, and a
“sliding car” icon in the instrument cluster.
Some drivers may notice a slight movement of the brake pedal when the
AdvanceTrac
威
with RSC performs a system self-check. During
AdvanceTrac
威
with RSC operation you may experience the following:
•
A rumble, grunting, or grinding noise after startup and when driving
off
•
A slight deceleration of the vehicle
•
The AdvanceTrac
威
with RSC indicator light will flash when the system
is activated.
•
If your foot is on the brake pedal, you will feel a vibration in the
pedal.
•
If the driving condition is severe and your foot is not on the brake, the
brake pedal will move to apply higher brake forces. You may also hear
a whoosh of air from under the instrument panel during this severe
condition.
Traction Control
Traction Control helps your vehicle maintain traction, when driving on
slippery and/or hilly road surfaces, by detecting and controlling wheel
spin. Excessive wheel spin is controlled by momentarily reducing engine
power and/or applying the anti-lock brakes. Traction Control is a driver
aid that helps your vehicle.
