Chevrolet Corvette Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-

178 Driving and Operating
Electric Power Steering
The vehicle has electric power steering.
It does not have power steering fluid.
Regular maintenance is not required.
If power steering assist is lost due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can be
steered, but may require increased effort.
If the steering assist is used for an extended
period of time while the vehicle is not
moving, power assist may be reduced.
If the steering wheel is turned until it
reaches the maximum rotation and is held
at that position for an extended period of
time, power steering assist may be reduced.
Normal use of the power steering assist
should return when the system cools down.
See your dealer if there is a problem.
Dynamic Rack Travel
If equipped with Magnetic Ride Control,
Dynamic Rack Travel (DRT) is a steering
system feature which enhances driving by
providing additional maximum steering
wheel rotation to allow a tighter turning
radius during low speed driving conditions.
If the vehicle speed increases or if the
suspension encounters significant wheel
travel, such as a driveway, while at
maximum steering rotation, DRT may gently
push the steering back a small amount to
prevent the front tires from contacting the
vehicle. This is normal operation. There is no
customer interface or display for this
feature. DRT is not available when in
Track Mode.
Curve Tips
.
Take curves at a reasonable speed.
.
Reduce speed before entering a curve.
.
Maintain a reasonable and steady speed
through the curve.
.
Wait until the vehicle is out of the curve
before accelerating gently into the
straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
.
There are some situations when steering
around a problem may be more effective
than braking.
.
Holding both sides of the steering wheel
allows you to turn 180 degrees without
removing a hand.
.
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows
steering while braking.
