Trailer Sway Control (Tsc) - Dodge 2014 Journey Owner's Manual

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

Trailer Sway Control (TSC)

TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an exces-
sively swaying trailer. TSC activates automatically once
the excessively swaying trailer is recognized. When TSC
is functioning, the "ESC Activation/Malfunction Indica-
tor Light" will flash, the engine power will be reduced,
and you will feel the brake being applied to individual
wheels in an attempt to stop the trailer from swaying.
NOTE: The TSC is disabled when the ESC system is in
the "Partial Off" mode.
• TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always
use caution when towing a trailer and follow the
tongue weight recommendations. Refer to "Vehicle
Loading" and "Trailer Towing" in "Starting and
Operating" for further information.
• If TSC activates while towing a trailer, stop the
vehicle at the nearest safe location and adjust the
trailer load to eliminate the trailer sway.
• Failure to follow these warnings can result in an
accident or serious personal injury.
