The vehicle may have 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 there is a
difference between the intended
path and the direction the vehicle is
actually traveling. StabiliTrak
selectively applies braking pressure
to the vehicle's brakes to help steer
the vehicle in the intended direction.
StabiliTrak comes on automatically
whenever the vehicle is started. To
assist with directional control of the
vehicle, the system should always
be left on.

is normal. Continue to steer the
vehicle in the intended direction.
