ADVANCETRACா STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM Your vehicle is equipped with the AdvanceTrac௡ system. The AdvanceTrac௡ system provides the following stability enhancement features for certain driving situations: • Traction control system (TCS), which functions to help avoid drive-wheel spin and loss of traction. • Electronic stability control (ESC), which functions to help avoid skids or lateral slides WARNING: Vehicle modifications involving braking system, aftermarket roof racks, suspension, steering system, tire construction and/or wheel/tire size may change the handling characteristics of the vehicle and may adversely affect the performance of the AdvanceTrac௡ system. In addition, installing any stereo loudspeakers may interfere with and adversely affect the AdvanceTrac௡ system. Install any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker as far as possible from the front center console, the tunnel, and the front seats in order to minimize the risk of interfering with the AdvanceTrac௡ sensors. Reducing the effectiveness of the AdvanceTrac௡ system could lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. 205 2011 05+ Mustang (197) Owners Guide, 3rd Printing USA (fus)
