Trailer Lamps
Always check that all trailer lights are
working at the beginning of each trip, and
periodically on longer trips.
Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When properly connected, the trailer
indicators will illuminate to indicate the
vehicle is turning, changing lanes,
or stopping. When towing a trailer, the
arrows on the instrument cluster will
illuminate even if the trailer is not properly
connected or the bulbs are burned out.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC)
Vehicles with StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) have a Trailer Sway Control
(TSC) feature. Trailer sway is unintended
side-to-side motion of a trailer while towing.
If the vehicle is towing a trailer and the TSC
detects that sway is increasing, the vehicle
brakes are selectively applied at each wheel,
to help reduce excessive trailer sway.
If TSC is enabled, the Traction Control
System (TCS)/StabiliTrak warning light will
flash on the instrument cluster. Reduce
vehicle speed by gradually removing your
foot from the accelerator. If trailer sway
continues, StabiliTrak can help slow the
vehicle down. TSC will not function if
StabiliTrak is turned off. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability Control 0 170.
{
Warning
Trailer sway can result in a crash and in
serious injury or death, even if the
vehicle is equipped with TSC.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
If the trailer begins to sway, reduce
vehicle speed by gradually removing your
foot from the accelerator. Then pull over
to check the trailer and vehicle to help
correct possible causes, including an
improperly or overloaded trailer,
unsecured load, improper trailer hitch
configuration, or improperly inflated or
incorrect vehicle or trailer tyres. See
Towing Equipment 0 231 for trailer
ratings and hitch setup recommendations.
Trailer Tyres
Always check all trailer tyre pressures before
each trip when the tyres are cool. Low
trailer tyre pressure is a leading cause of
trailer tyre blowouts.
Trailer tyres deteriorate over time. The
trailer tyre sidewall will show the week and
year the tyre was manufactured. Many
trailer tyre manufacturers recommend
replacing tyres more than six years old.
