appropriate wheel(s) to counteract the sway of the trailer.
TSC will become active automatically once an excessively
swaying trailer is recognized.
Always use caution when towing a trailer and follow the
trailer tongue weight recommendations. When TSC is
functioning, the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” will flash, the engine power may be reduced and
you may feel the brakes being applied to individual
wheels to attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is
only active in the default “ESC On” mode. TSC can be
disabled by pressing the “ESC Off” switch and entering
“ESC Partial Off” mode. It is not active in the “ESC
Partial Off” or “ESC Full Off” modes. Refer to the ESC
portion of this section for an explanation of the different
ESC operating modes.
NOTE: TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying.
WARNING!
If the TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle
down, stop at the nearest safe location, and adjust the
trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
Ready Alert Braking may reduce the time required to
reach full braking during emergency braking situations.
It anticipates when an emergency braking situation may
occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is released by
the driver. When the throttle is released very quickly,
Ready Alert Braking applies a small amount of brake
pressure. This brake pressure will not be noticed by the
driver. The brake system uses this brake pressure to allow
a fast brake response if the driver applies the brakes.
