Trailer Sway Control (Tsc) - Jeep 2014 Cherokee Owner's Manual

The ESC OFF Indicator Light indicates the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is partially
off or full off.

Trailer Sway Control (TSC)

The TSC system uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize
an excessively swaying trailer and will take the appro-
priate actions to attempt to stop the sway. The system
may reduce engine power and apply the brake of the
appropriate wheel(s) to counteract the sway of the trailer.
TSC will become active automatically once an excessively
swaying trailer is recognized.
Always use caution when towing a trailer and follow the
trailer tongue weight recommendations. When TSC is
functioning, the "ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light" will flash, the engine power may be reduced and
you may feel the brakes being applied to individual
wheels to attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is
only active in the default "ESC On" mode. TSC can be
disabled by pressing the "ESC Off" switch and entering
"ESC Partial Off" mode. It is not active in the "ESC
Partial Off" or "ESC Full Off" modes. Refer to the ESC
portion of this section for an explanation of the different
ESC operating modes.
NOTE: TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying.
WARNING!
If the TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle
down, stop at the nearest safe location, and adjust the
trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.
