Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) sys-

The Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) is
operated as a vehicle stability con-
trol system. The TSA is designed to
stabilise the vehicle and trailer when
the trailer sways or oscillates. There
are various factors that make the
vehicle sway or oscillate.
Such incidents mostly happen at
high speed, but, there is also a risk
of swaying when the trailer is
affected by crosswinds, buffeting or
improper overloading.
