This feature applies the vehicle brakes at individual wheels and, if
necessary, reduces engine power. If the trailer begins to sway, the stability
control light flashes and the message TRAILER SWAY REDUCE SPEED
appears in the information display. The first thing to do is slow the vehicle
down, then pull safely to the side of the road and check for proper tongue
load and trailer load distribution. Refer to Load Carrying chapter for
specific loading information.
