the vehicle comes to a stop.

are parking on a hill, see Driving
Characteristics and Towing Tips on
page 8 49.

control module to supplement
the power brake system under
conditions where the driver has

control module increases brake

the brake pedal is released or
brake pedal pressure is quickly
decreased.
