Parking brake – general information
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
The ABS system helps to improve vehicle
control (stopping and steering) during severe
braking conditions by limiting brake lockup.
When the system "senses" impending lockup,
braking pressure is automatically modulated
in order to help prevent lockup that could
lead to a skid.
The system performs a brief self-diagnostic
test when the engine has been started and
driver releases the brake pedal. Another auto-
matic test may be performed when the vehi-
cle first reaches a speed of approximately
6 mph (10 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate
several times and a sound may be audible
from the ABS control module, which is nor-
mal.

Brake lights
The brake lights come on automatically when
the brakes are applied.
Adaptive brake lights
The adaptive brake lights activate in the event
of sudden braking or if the ABS system is
activated. This function causes an additional
taillight on each side of the vehicle to illumi-
nate to help alert vehicles traveling behind.
The adaptive brake lights activate if:
•
The ABS system activates for more than
approximately a half second
•
In the event of sudden braking while the
vehicle is moving at speeds above
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
When the vehicle has come to a stop, the
brake lights and additional taillights remain on
for as long as the brake pedal is depressed or
until braking force on the vehicle is reduced.
