Aggressive driving in any road conditions can cause you to lose control of your vehicle increasing the risk of severe personal injury or death. The occurrence of a AdvanceTrac with RSC event is an indication that at least some of the tires have exceeded their ability to grip the road; this may lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Operating your vehicle with AdvanceTrac with RSC system disabled may severely reduce your ability to control your vehicle. If you experience a severe road event or any loss of vehicle control, SLOW DOWN. If a failure is detected in the AdvanceTrac with RSC system, and the AdvanceTrac with RSC button has not been pushed, the warning indicator light in the instrument cluster will stay on. If the warning indicator light in the instrument cluster remains on while the engine is running, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately. 258 2008 Mountaineer (mnt) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
