System Description (cont'd)

Brake Assist Features

Brake assist helps ensure that any driver can achieve the full braking potential of the vehicle by increasing brake

system pressure in a panic situation, bringing the vehicle into a full ABS stop.

If during a panic stop the VSA modulator-control unit determines that the brake system pressure increases above a

threshold in less than a certain amount of time, the VSA modulator-control unit engages brake assist.

Because the brake system pressure crossed the pressure threshold before the time threshold had expired, the VSA

modulator-control unit goes into brake assist mode.
