SYSTEM

StabiliTrak is an advanced computer-
controlled vehicle stability
enhancement system that assists with
directional control of the vehicle in
difficult driving conditions. It turns on
automatically every time you start
your vehicle.
When the system senses a
discrepancy between your intended
path and the direction the vehicle is
actually traveling, it selectively
applies brake pressure at any one of
the wheels to help steer the vehicle
in the direction in which you are
steering.
To limit wheelspin, you should
always leave the system on. If your
vehicle becomes stuck and rocking
the vehicle is required, the system
should be turned off.
To turn off the system, press the
traction control button located on the
center console. For vehicles without a
center console, the button is located
at the end of the gearshift lever.
