Side Wind Stabilization
Side wind stabilization is an advanced
feature that works by carefully applying
the brakes on one side of the vehicle to
reduce the effect of a side wind gust on
the vehicle's path.
Torque Vectoring by Brakes
Torque vectoring control applies brake
torque on the inner driven wheel in a curve
for better traction to avoid an understeer,
or oversteer situation. Unlike electronic
stability control, enhanced torque
vectoring control does not slow the
vehicle. It helps control excessive wheel
slip and gives the vehicle improved
cornering agility.
Traction Control
Traction control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to maintain traction of the wheels
by detecting and controlling wheel spin.
See What Is Traction Control (page 202).

SWITCHING STABILITY
CONTROL ON AND OFF
The system turns on each time you switch
the ignition on.
The electronic stability control system is
disabled when the transmission selector
is in reverse (R).
You can switch the traction control
independently. See Switching Traction
Control On and Off (page 202).
Note: When you place your vehicle into
four-wheel drive low, the stability control
disables. Stability control resumes when
you put your vehicle back into two-wheel
drive or four-wheel drive high.
