Driving WARNING: If a failure has been detected within the AdvanceTrac with RSC system, the stability control light will illuminate steadily. Verify that the AdvanceTrac with RSC system is not manually disabled (press the stability control button located on the center of the instrument panel). If the stability control light still illuminates steadily, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately. Operating your vehicle with AdvanceTrac with RSC disabled could lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. The AdvanceTrac with RSC system automatically enables each time the engine is started. All features of the AdvanceTrac with RSC system (TCS, ESC, and RSC) are active and monitor the vehicle from start-up. However, the system will only intervene if the driving situation requires it. The AdvanceTrac with RSC system includes a traction control button on the center of the instrument panel, and a stability control light in the instrument cluster. The stability control light in the instrument cluster will illuminate if a driving situation causes the AdvanceTrac with RSC system to operate. If the stability control light illuminates steadily, verify that the AdvanceTrac with RSC system is not manually disabled by pressing the traction control button located on the center stack of the instrument panel. If the stability control light remains steadily illuminated, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately. Note: If the system cannot be turned off, refer to MyKey™ in the Locks and Security chapter for more information.
