WHAT IS THE STABILIZER BAR
DISCONNECT
Stabilizer bar disconnect is a feature that
allows the front stabilizer bar to be
disconnected for off-road use. This allows
for increased front wheel articulation to
improve capability and comfort on off-road
terrain.

PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: If the stabilizer bar
disconnect warning lamp illuminates red,
a fault could be detected and the
stabilizer bar could not be connected.
Do not drive your vehicle above 20 mph
(32 km/h) and have the system checked
as soon as possible. Driving your vehicle
above 20 mph (32 km/h) could reduce
vehicle stability.
WARNING: Do not get under a
vehicle that is switched on as the
stabilizer bar disconnect could activate
and the vehicle could unexpectedly drop.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death.
If an amber warning message appears in
the cluster indicating that the system
requires service, the stabilizer bar
disconnect will not be available. Have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer
as soon as possible.
SWITCHING THE STABILIZER
BAR DISCONNECT ON AND
OFF
Switching the Stabilizer Bar
Disconnect On
Switch the system on by
pressing the button on the
instrument panel. The stabilizer
bar disconnects when the vehicles speed
is below 20 mph (32 km/h). An amber
indicator illuminates to show that the
stabilizer bar disconnected.
When the vehicle speed exceeds 20 mph
(32 km/h), the stabilizer bar reconnects
and a grey indicator illuminates, indicating
the system is in standby mode. The
stabilizer bar disconnects again once the
vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h).
If the vehicle speed is above 20 mph
(32 km/h) and the system is on, the
request is stored and a grey indicator
illuminates to indicate that the system is
in standby mode. When the vehicle speed
falls below 20 mph (32 km/h), the
stabilizer bar disconnects and the amber
indicator illuminates, indicating that the
stabilizer bar has disconnected.
Note: The grey indicator stays on until either
the vehicle speed reduces and the stabilizer
bar disconnects or, the system turns off.
The stabilizer bar system also turns on and
disconnects when you select the Rock
Crawl drive mode. See Selecting a
G.O.A.T. Mode (page 242).
Note: The stabilizer bar disconnect is not
available in certain drive modes. See
Selecting a G.O.A.T. Mode (page 242).
Note: The stabilizer bar disconnect could
be delayed during wheel slippage, dynamic
maneuvers, dynamic cornering, or when
there is an anti-lock brake system or
electronic stability control event in progress.
